Текст песни А.Абдулов, муз. Э.Артемьева, стихи Г.Шпаликова - страна не зарыдает обо мне

* Music - Andrei Makarevich
* Word - Gennady Shpalikov

Oh, I drown in the Western Dvina
Or die in some other way ,
Country wept for me,
But me comrades weep .

They will carry me to the cemetery ,
Just long and old grudges .
I'm canceling military salute ,
Not necessary to me civil funeral .

I've never ridden an elephant
And it does not solve the most important problem .
Country wept for me,
But me comrades weep .

Not released mourning morning newspapers,
Followers of me not to lament .
I'm sorry , goodbye , the Central Committee ,
And the hymn I do not have to play .
