Marjhanjha

(перевод песни «Марджанджа» на слова Константина Арсенева и Михаила Шуфутинского)

The sun was awaiting of falling, the sky spent its plume,
Palms under wind blowing were like in Elysium.
The girl, I was loving, the girl with sensual arts
Was melting as a wax in my arms!

Chorus:

Marjhanjha, Marjhanjha, I'm now in trouble!
Waves flatter rocks that are tired of jumble…
Marjhanjha, Marjhanjha, where could you be?
Only flickers're above the sea…


Shadows were intercrossing from women and their men,
It was like orchid blossom - your body's perfect smell…
And in the night I told you: “Soon I have to leave,
To understand that love is too brief!”

Chorus.

The body at the sunset, the skin is colored in bronze…
The cigarette smoke is unset by a smack of rose.
Hips are hugged tightly under a white lace thread…
Kissing is really biting under a tropic shed.

Chorus, 2 times.
