Алексей Фадеев - Стакан молока
текст песни

The boy was hungry and exhausted.
He hadn't eaten in a long time, having come from far away.
Knocking on the door, he asked for water.
But a woman brought out milk.
And that glass gave him the strength to live again.
He believed there was kindness in the world.
Having become a doctor, he saved someone else's life.
A person has only one.

So he worked in a clinic.
He became a scientist and a doctor of science.
He hurried to see the sick on a short day off.
"A good doctor!"—he could be heard all around.
One morning he was making his rounds.
Then the phone rang invitingly.
I have a patient, and people are waiting.
"Help me!"—the surgeon begged him.

"I'll be right back. I won't leave you alone."—And opening the door, he saw the sick woman.
Suddenly his heart fluttered.
She was completely gray! But he recognized her.
She! She! How could I forget...
The one who once gave me milk...
She's seriously ill! I'll treat her myself.
Although hope is so slim.

He saved her life! He put all his strength into it.
Kindness lives and prevails.
He put a note for her payment.
I won't pay! she thought.
But when she took the note, she couldn't believe her eyes.
Her tears suddenly made the line flow.
You don't owe me! Thank you for everything.
Paid with a glass of milk.
