Текст песни Булат Окуджава - Как научится рисовать

If you want to become a painter,
you do not have to hurry to draw.
Different brushes of wool badger
before you decompose,
white paint take, because
this is the beginning, then
take a yellow paint, because
everything ripens, then
Gray paint take it to fall
in the sky the lead was splashed,
Black paint take, because
there is an end to the beginning,
paint the lilac more generously,
laugh and cry, and then
take the blue paint to the evening
the bird flew into the palm of his hand,
take the red paint to make the flame
fluttered, then
paint green take to branches
in the red throw a fire.

Stir these colors, like passions,
in his heart, and then
stir these paints and heart
with the sky, with the earth, and then ...
The main thing is to burn and, burning,
Do not lament over that.
Maybe someone will judge first,
but will not forget then!
