Text: Leningrad Cowboys. Zastarovje.

Cold wind, midwinter moon, please shed me some light
I'm so tired, surrounded by darkness, can't tell day from night
My mind wanders on, to times when our spirits will sing,
come days of spring
Zastarovje, my friend, long time no see
I'll come alive when you drink with me
Oh Zastarovje, my friend
There's sun light dancing around,
still the days move so slow
I wait for the moment when the ice starts to brake
and the river will flow

Music and laughter will soon fill the air once again,
once again,
Zastarovje, my friend, long time no see
I'll come alive when you drink with me
Oh Zastarovje, my friend
Zastarovje, my friend, drink up with me
I'll come alive in your company
Oh, Zastarovje, my friend
