Dzhere-dzhere-dzherelo
Probyva sobi shlyakh
Shcho by shcho by ne bulo
Svit na yiyi plechakh
Mani-mani-manivtsi
Zlyvysti, skelyasti
Ale znaj: v tvoyiy rutsi
Tvoye vlasne shchastya
Oh…
Davaj, mala, palay
Oh…
I'm not holy, I'm alive
Z namy Mama Tereza i Diva Mariya
Bosi, niby po lezu, jshly po zemli
With us Mama Teresa, Diva Maria
All the Divas were born as a human beings
Z namy Mama Tereza i Diva Mariya
Bosi, niby po lezu, jshly po zemli
With us Mama Teresa, Diva Maria
All the Divas were born as a human beings
Navit' shche zmalya my shukaly shlyakh
Ta zhyttya - petlya, niby dlya tykh, khto padaye
Na svoyikh plechakh shche male divcha
Nece z bolyu chakh i vbacha, shcho to vada ye
Znobu ne taka, to nadto m'yaka
Odyah na kistkakh, golyaka chy to pid vinets'
De tvoye dytya? Shcho tvoye zhyttya?
Ta roky zh petyat'! I zatyam: skoro vzhe kinets'
I khaj khtos' khoche aby my zlamalys'
Khaj buva v tobi zaryadu
Ne po likot' a po palets'
I khaj khtos' khova za posmishkoyu
Nenavyst' i zazdrist'
Koly ty puskayesh v sertse hniv
Dobra lyubovi zamist'
Ale v nebi ye svyati
Yikh nohy bachyly tsyu zemlyu, znayesh
Tvyij ternystyj shlyakh
Same tomu ye ne daremno
I khaj bude duzhe strashno j temno
I chasom ne lehko
Ta z toboyu zabzhdy budut'
Z neba sliduvaty predky
Z namy Mama Tereza i Diva Mariya
Bosi, niby po lezu, jshly po zemli
With us Mama Teresa, Diva Maria
All the Divas were born as a human beings
Z namy Mama Tereza i Diva Mariya
Bosi, niby po lezu, jshly po zemli
With us Mama Teresa, Diva Maria
All the Divas were born as a humаn beingѕ
A stre-stre-stream
Making its way
No matter-no matter what
The world is on her shoulders
Deto-deto-detours
Rainy, rocky
But know this: it's in your hand
Your own happiness
Oh…
Come on, little girl, light up
Oh…
I'm not holy, I'm alive
Mother Teresa and Virgin Mary are with us
Barefoot, as if on a blade, walked on the ground
With us Mama Teresa, Diva Maria
All the Divas were born as a human beings
Mother Teresa and Virgin Mary are with us
Barefoot, as if on a blade, walked on the ground
With us Mama Teresa, Diva Maria
All the Divas were born as a human beings
Even from a young age, we were looking for a way
But life is a loop, as if for those who fall
A little girl is still carrying on her shoulders
Painfully, a bucket and she knows that it's a flaw
You aren't right again, you're too soft
Clothes hanging on your bones, naked or going to marry
Where is your child? What is your life?
But the years fly by! And then: soon it will be over
And let them want us to break
Sometimes you only have so much energy
Not up to the elbow, but up to the finger
And let them hide behind a smile
Hate and envy
When you let anger into your heart
Instead of kindness and love
But there are saints in heaven
Their feet have seen this land, you know
Your thorny path
That is why it's not in vain
And let it be very scary and dark
And sometimes it's not easy
But they will always be with you
Ancestors following you from the sky
Mother Teresa and Virgin Mary are with us
Barefoot, as if on a blade, walked on the ground
With us Mama Teresa, Diva Maria
All the Divas were born as a human beings
Mother Teresa and Virgin Mary are with us
Barefoot, as if on a blade, walked on the ground
With us Mama Teresa, Diva Maria
All the Divas were born as a humаn beingѕ
