"Fortuitous waltz"

(Translated by Andrey)

The night is short,
Clouds are sleeping,
I heard the known melody of the waltz
In the silence of your small town.
I heard melody of waltz 
And looked it for an hour or so
Morning is calling me,
I have to march again.
And it is good that I met with you
When I was going by your gate.

Though I am almost not familiar with you
And my home is far away
But I am feeling like I am again
Nearly my dear home.
We are dancing two together
In this large hall,
So say at least a word
About any theme.

Though I am almost not familiar with you
And my home is far away
But I am feeling like I am again
Nearly my dear home.
We are dancing two together
In this large hall,
So say at least a word
About any theme.

February of 1943

The Russian version (translit):

"Sluchainyi val's"

Noch' korotka,
Spiat oblaka,
Ia znakomuiu muzyku val'sa 
Uslykhal v tishine gorodka.
Utro zoviot
Snova v pokhod.
Khorosho, chto ia vstretilsia s vami, 
Prokhodia mimo vashikh vorot

Khot' ia s vami sovsem ne znakom,
I dalioko otsiuda moi dom,
No mne kazhetsia snova -
Ia u doma rodnogo.
V etom zale bol'shom
My kak budto vdvoiom,
Tak skazhite khot' slovo,
Sam ne znaiu o chiom.

Khot' ia s vami sovsem ne znakom,
I dalioko otsiuda moi dom,
No mne kazhetsia snova -
Ia u doma rodnogo.
V etom zale bol'shom
My kak budto vdvoiom,
Tak skazhite khot' slovo,
Sam ne znaiu o chiom.
