Maravilhosa (in russian & english)



Рио...

Где они?
Твои тёплые ночи, берега счастья?
Ушли за горизонт, с улыбкой напевая
О подвигах душ, о красках сердец
Ничего не тая, ничего не прощая...

Машу ему вслед!

Не слышит... По улицам гром карнавала!
Экзотика столь привычных вещей
Контрастны, мелодий твоих настроения
Открыто так много, понятно так мало
Ещё бы хоть парочку дней!

Ты будешь такой же, когда я вернусь
Гордый, прекрасный и незнакомый
Чужак, я снова здесь растворюсь

В искрах ответов, в тайнах вопросов
Всё тот же Рио...
Cidade Maravilhosa

----------------------
as per Tim's note, here's a rough translation...
----------
Rio...

Where are they?
Your warm nights, happiness shores
Gone beyond the horizon, with a smile, singing
About exploits of souls and colors of hearts
Assuming nothing, forgiving nothing

I wave as he leaves!

He doesn't hear it...Carnaval thunders accross the streets!
Exotics of such familiar things
Contrasting are your melodies' moods
So much is uncovered, so little is understood
I wish there were at least few more days!

You will be the same, upon my return
Proud, beatific and strange
An alien, in you I'll disolve
In sparks of questions, in secrets of answers

Same old Rio

The Marvelous City
