Belka and strelka

Light!
We outrun the light.
We are not afraid of light.
They taught us how to feel.. The

Sound!
We've overtaken sound.
And power of our arms
Compresses nerves.

Fear!
Is spread around the clouds.
And we have lost this fear
We have been ordered to sur-

vive!
We wish to live so much.
This hope will never die,
But it will burn with the rocket.

Chorus:

High, in the skies
We're like gods dressed up in white clothes
Fright
In the eyes.
And no more…
This prayer is hopeless!

Now!
We outrun the sound,
We hear this dreadful buzz
Like someone rips through darkness…

Speed!
It does not hear our prayer
This speed can burn us now!
And will not give us time to...

Wait!
We can only wait,
The sound will crush our veins
There're only hundred meters...

God!
We wish to live so much.
This hope will never die,
But it will burn with the rocket.

Down!
We're moving downwards.
The seconds overwhelm our minds
It's now only fifteen meters…

Live!
We wish to live so much.
We just don't want to die
We won't get burned with the rocket
