Александр Дольский - Звезда на ладони - 09. Старинные часы
текст песни

Clocks are coming, clocks are coming,
antique clock.
Two arrows hang like a mustache
They do not have for beauty.
They knock tick-so, tick-so
And they beat boom-white-boom-boil,
And someone hears - everything is wrong
Not so lived in the world!

And someone hears - cry - do not cry,
They fly, fly years ...
And time is an old wise doctor.
trouble will be forgotten.

You say, goodbye to me, my friend,
Go to your watch.
Not for me their quiet knock
You yourself are not for me.

And again my watch is going on
Made for many years.
I threw time on the scales.
But there are no worthy weights.

1956
