Lyrics

Отслужи по мне, отслужи,
Я не тот, что умер вчера.
Он, конечно, здорово жил
Под палящим солнцем двора,
Он, конечно, жил не тужил,
Не жалел того, что имел.
Отслужи по мне, отслужи,
Я им быть вчера расхотел.
С места он коня пускал вскачь,
Не щадил своих кулаков,
Пусть теперь столетний твой плач
Смоет сладость ваших грехов.
Пусть теперь твой герб родовой
На знаменах траурных шьют.
Он бы был сейчас, конечно, живой,
Если б верил в честность твою.
Но его свалили с коня,
Разорвав подпругу седла,
Тетива вскричала, звеня,
И стрела под сердце легла…
Тронный зал убрать прикажи,
Вспомни, что сирень он любил.
Отслужи по мне, отслужи,
Я его вчера позабыл.
Я вчера погиб ни за грош,
За большие тыщи погиб,
А он наружу лез из всех своих кож,
А я теперь не двину ноги.
В его ложе спать не ложись,
Холод там теперь ледяной.
Отслужи по мне, отслужи,
Умер он, а я нынче другой.

Вариант аккордов от Serge Vesnin (2:5054/18.364):
Отслужи по мне, отслужи,
Я не тот, что умер вчера.
Он, конечно, здорово жил
Под палящим солнцем двора,
Он, конечно, жил не тужил,
Не жалел того, что имел.
Отслужи по мне, отслужи,
Я им быть вчера расхотел.
Вариант аккордов от Stas Wilf (2:5040/52.13):
Отслужи по мне, отслужи,
Я не тот, что умер вчера.
Он, конечно, здорово жил
Под палящим солнцем двора,
Он, конечно, жил не тужил,
Не жалел того, что имел.
Отслужи по мне, отслужи,
Я им быть вчера расхотел.

Lyrics translation

Serve me, serve me,
I'm not the one who died yesterday.
He certainly lived well
Under the scorching sun of the courtyard,
He, of course, did not live hard,
I didn't regret what I had.
Serve me, serve me,
I didn't want to be one yesterday.
From his seat he started the horse at a gallop,
He didn't spare his fists,
Suppose now that a century your crying
Wash away the sweetness of your sins.
Let now your family coat of arms
On banners of mourning sew.
He would be alive now, of course,
If I believed in your honesty.
But he was thrown from his horse,
Breaking the saddle girth,
The bowstring screamed, ringing,
And an arrow under the heart lay…
Order the throne room to be removed,
Remember that he loved lilacs.
Serve me, serve me,
I forgot it yesterday.
I died yesterday for nothing,
For a lot of thousands died,
And he got out of all his skins,
I'm not going to kick my feet in now.
Don't go to sleep in his bed,
The cold there is now icy.
Serve me, serve me,
He died, and I am different now.
