So many wonders are hidden beyond the fogs! One can’t step close, cannot see them, nor take. Some tried already twice, but God likes a Trinity. All right, he’ll have to play one more time. Learn it for life, do not forget! And repeat like a conjuration - Don’t lose the hope in the fog, And don’t lose yourself. One time the fog was our patrimony, Many of us he protected for long. But now, the fog... your mission has ended. Stop locking the taiga with a bolt. Learn it for life, do not forget! And repeat like a conjuration - Don’t lose the hope in the fog, And don’t lose yourself. It’s covered with mysteries, wrapped in silence - The mother-nature has done magic. Everywhere the black gold and the white gold Is protected by the grey guard, the fog. Learn it for life, do not forget! And repeat like a conjuration - Don’t lose the hope in the fog, And don’t lose yourself. What is happening then? Nothing to try at all? The man is nothing compared to fog! But from the warmth, from the warmth of humanity Even the fog is rising to the top. Learn it for life, do not forget! And repeat like a conjuration - Don’t lose the hope in the fog, And don’t lose yourself.
