Songs performed in animation: Hope by Anna German My Adress the Soviet Union by Samocvety
And mama will forgive me.
After Emma Moshkovska's poem: The insult
A distant star is shining,
Again, we are torn away from home,
Again there are cities between us.
and lights of airport runways.
Fog and rain we have,
a cold dawn we have,
And on the unknown path ahead
lives fate will twist and turn.
Happy birthday
I hurt my mom,
Now we'll never- never
leave our home together,
I won't go anywhere with her.
She will not tell me anything,
I will not tell her anything too,
She does not speak
I do not speak...
I'll take a bag over my shoulders,
find a piece of bread,
find myself a strong cane,
and I'll go, I'll go into the taiga!
The rail-car wheels dictate
Where we urgently meet
My telephone numbers
Are scattered over the cities
The heart cares
the heart worries
I'm like a postal package.
My address is not a house or street,
My address is the Soviet Union.
My address is not a house or street,
My address is the Soviet Union.
May friendship carries us through the surges,
We go half even on a bread crust!
As the wind is like an avalanche, our song is like an avalanche too -
One half - to you, the other half - to me.
May friendship carries us through the surges,
We go half even on a bread crust!
As the wind is like an avalanche, our song is like an avalanche too -
One half - to you, the other half - to me.
And I will become a head chief,
And I will have a beard,
But I will always be sad
And very withdrawn...
It'll be a winter evening,
when many years have passed,
and my mom will have bought
a ticket for a jet plane.
And to my birthday
That plane will fly.
And mom will descend from it
And she will have forgiven me!
You'd believe that, going far away,
many thing would disappear from sight
thunderstorms dissolve
resentments seem absurd.
You only need to learn to wait,
You should be calm and persistent,
If you want to receive brief telegrams
of happiness from a life.
Hope is my earthly compass,
Good luck, an award for courage.
One song is enough,
but it should be about home.
[Scenario G Sapgir, directore A Petrov] Hope is my earthly compass,
[art director V. Gilyarova, camera M Druyan] Good luck, an award for courage.
[Sound V Kutuzov, cutter L Georgyeva] But a pretty song,
Just needs a house where it can be sung in.
