Текст песни Эля Фаизова - Философы в 13 с половиной

Having looked through the known volume
We learned to speak beautifully,
Pushkin's words, Makarenko, Dumas,
But not only this is our strength.

Chorus:

And every hour, every minute
On someone's eternal destinies of concern.
A piece of the heart to give to someone -
This, my friend, you and I have a job.

They sometimes know more than we do -
Philosophers in thirteen and a half.
Dreaming forget all times,
Sitting down with a candle in a warm fireplace.

Chorus.

And if you do not solve the problem -
They rush to you when looking for reinforcements,
Arrange life questioning,
Though we are with you, old man, not gods.

Chorus.

Having looked through the known volume
We teach them words and deeds.
We know our help they need,
Guys with curious eyes.
