Long ago
I dreamed that I fought
An important battle
And the rest of my life
I worked hard to fight
Just to fight...

But I grew quickly
Soon I was liutenant
Assigned to an frontier fortress
They assured that a battle was coming
I trained, worked, grew
Just to fight...


In the tartar's desert
I saw my dreams coming true
I saw my dreams sinking in the sand
Every breath
Every sound
Every step
I knew my battle was coming

In the tartar's desert
My battle was coming, but
They told me that I was coming to the city
Again, to see the leaves falling from the trees
To see the ladies blushing
To see the oldies working
I knew my battle was coming...

But the city became a stranger
In my dreams
It held me from my battle
So I came back
To the frontier
Just to pass the time until my battle...
I knew 'twas coming...

I saw so many friends dying in the desert
But none of them were fighting
They all just played in my desert
And the time soon was ending
And my battle coming

Now there I am
Near sixty
I waited for my battle
And now I can see the enemy
They built roads
They boughy artillery
And now the battle start

But in the tartar's desert
The time pass quickly
Now I'm sick and old
And when my battle is starting
I'm running
Out of the hills
To die in the city

Atleast
I could see
The enemies
I waited
But then I realized
That the real enemy was myself
They came
And now I'm dead
