Snowstorm
The years are gone, the never has arrived.
“The dead man goes to sleep in a white bed”
As a child I was always scared of both these lines by Blok and this song of Dad’s.
So I decided to “get my revenge” by mangling them both 🙈
I hope neither of them will take offense.
The chorus and the bridge are Alexander Blok’s “Покойник спать ложится…” (1909); where the song keeps Blok’s words, the crib is Dmitri N. Smirnov’s translation, “The calm snowstorm.”
