У мента и жены-то нет
И какая еще жена у мента
Если от роду двадцать лет
И вообще-то кругом – война

Он и вырос на той войне
И пришла ему масть не та.
Ох, не та
И достала его в родной стране
Пуля-дура

А он матери так писал:
Ты же знаешь про все сама,
Мама.
Сколько раз ты меня берегла…
До свидания, мама

И упал он заместо нас
Было мальчику двадцать лет
Эх, судьба
Не сложилась на этот раз
Он промедлил,
А снайпер – нет

Был пацан – и нет пацана
А жить бы ему до ста
И шапки – долой
И водку – до дна,
Когда хоронят мента.

Встать, когда хоронят бойца!

Ment

U menta i zheny-to net
I kakaya eshche zhena u menta
Esli ot rodu dvadtsat’ let
I voobshche-to krugom – voyna

On i vyros na toy voyne
I prishla emu mast’ ne ta.
Okh, ne ta
I dostala ego v rodnoy strane
Pulya-dura

A on materi tak pisal:
Ty zhe znaesh’ pro vse sama,
Mama.
Skol’ko raz ty menya beregla…
Do svidaniya, mama

I upal on zamesto nas
Bylo mal’chiku dvadtsat’ let
Ekh, sud’ba
Ne slozhilas’ na etot raz
On promedlil,
A snayper – net

Byl patsan – i net patsana
A zhit’ by emu do sta
I shapki – doloy
I vodku – do dna,
Kogda khoronyat menta.

Vstat’, kogda khoronyat boytsa!

Cop

Translation by Kenneth Watanabe

The cop doesn’t even have a wife.
And why would the cop need a wife at all
if he’s only 20 years old.
And there is a war all around.

He’s grown up during that war.
And he got (a card of) the wrong suit*
Oh, a wrong one.
And she** got him in his motherland
The foolish bullet

And he wrote to his mother:
You so know about all,
Mom.
How many times you protected me…
Good-bye, mom

and he has fallen in place of us there
Was boy of twenty years
Alas, the destiny
has not happened this time
He delayed,
And the sniper did not

(There) was a boy – then (there) was no boy
And he would have lived to a hundred
And cap – off with***
And vodka – to the bottom
When burying a cop.
Rise, when burying a fighter!

* he got ill-fated
** she refers to the bullet,i.e. he got shot
*** And off with the cap, and drink down the vodka
