about
During the joyful spring days, this melancholic ballad is sure to remind you of the sad yet beautiful time of year, which seems to be particularly heartwarming for the Canterlot palace guardian pony.
This song originally appeared on the "Ponies at Dawn: Skyward" album. Check out this amazing collaboration project, there's tons of great songs there!
lyrics
Original (Russian)
Мне, будто сны с далёкой планеты,
Уходящее чудится лето
- Яркие кадры мелькают.
Но, каждый день отдаёт силы ночи,
Становясь постепенно короче.
И всё засыпает...
А мне опять не спится. Пархнуть бы лёгкой птицей,
Средь пожелтевших листьев в осенний день кружится.
Но днём утопаю. Мысли все в заботе.
Мне теперь остались ночи в Кантерлоте.
Нет, не вернуть нам прошедшего лета.
Пролетело оно как комета,
на ресницах снежинками тает.
И вот, морозы повсюду лютуют,
с Кристальной Империи дуют,
Льдом, серебром пеленают.
И долгими ночами, под тусклыми свечами
О прошлом вспоминаю и балуюсь мечтами.
Тишина и книги в старинном переплёте
Плед и треск камина в спящем Кантерлоте.

English translation
To me, like a dream from a far away planet
The leaving summer is glancing
and the bright frames are flashing
But every day is turning to night
slightly becoming shorter
and everything is falling asleep
And I can't fall asleep.. I wish I could flutter (like a bird)
among the yellowed leaves in the autumn day
But in the daytime I'm sinking in deep thinking
The only thing left is the nights in Canterlot...
No, we can't return the summer
which has flown like a comet
It's melting on my eyelashes...
And here the cold is freezing,
the winds are blowing from
silver Crystal Empire
And during long nights, under the dim candles
I remember my past and fool myself with the dreams.
Around me there is silence and the ancient books,
the plaid and crackling sound of the fireplace in sleeping Canterlot...

I absolutely adore this compilation, but if I had to choose a favorite I'd say Paint the Moon Red, it's such a energetic and inspiring track. IF YOU'VE GOT HOOVES THEN MOVE 'EM! BeatrixBrightmoon
