Song lyrics illustration project
ДДТ - Это всё (DDT "This is it")
I asked my friend, what is her favorite song. And this was the result. These are more or less funny illustrations of the lyrics using it's direct meaning rather than the metaphors. The lyrics are in Russian, but I wrote the translation below. You can listen to the song here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNkIhCIKoB0
Fainting leaves on the window
Overgrown with translucent water
There's no bottom or death to the water
I say goodbye to you
A handful of warmth after the long winter
Let us carry it, five minutes left till morning
Let us carry it, five minutes left till morning
Let us survive, our sea of guilt
The black hole shall swallow time
This is all that remains after me
This is all that I shall take along
This is all that I shall take along
Memory sits by our table
With a candle flame in hand
You were so good
Look at me, do not be silent
Look at me, do not be silent
A gull's cry on the while wall
Encircled with black moon
Draw something on the window
And whisper an adieu like a river
And whisper an adieu like a river
This is all that remains after me
This is all that I shall take along
This is all that I shall take along
(This is a pun for Viktor Tsoi's song "Pack of cigarettes")
Two dreams and a glass of sorrow
We rose from the dead and finished it
We rose from the dead and finished it
I do not know why I was given to you
Road of the moon reigns over me
(the word "dan" can mean both "given" and dan as a rank in the martial arts)
Do not cry, forgive, if you can
Life is not sugar, and death is not tea
I have my own road to carry
So long, friend, and farewell…
