NIGHT Wanderers

Strangers in the night
Eyes met
There was no reason
We have to be near
There was no reason
To make hearts burn

But your eyes
challenged
your lips bend
was strangely close
And I suddenly realized:
I went to you all my life

Strangers in the night
Walked in the desert of dreams
Strangers in the night
Until they sounded
First words
Who could know then
Reach out your hand to love
Call for yourself - and ...

Here are the years
From that first meeting
Apparently fate.
Gives us eternity
Eternity for two
For the wanderers of the night

STRANGERS IN THE NIGHT

Strangers in the night
exchanging glances
wondering in the night
What were the chances
we'd be sharing love
Before the night was through.

Something in your eyes
was so inviting
Something in you smile
was so exciting
Something in my heart
Told me I must have you.

Strangers in the night
two lonely people, we were
strangers in the night
Up to the moment, when we
said our first hello.
Little did we know
Love was just a glance away
A warm embracing dance away and -

Ever since that night
we've been together.
Lovers at first sight
in love forever.
It turned out so right
For strangers in the night.

INTERLINE TRANSLATION (© Mikhail Dozmorov)

Ordinary night passers-by
we looked at each other
Trying to guess
Are we destined to know love tonight?*

Your eyes are so enticing
Your smile was so mesmerizing
And my heart whispered to me:
"Don't let her go!"

Passers-by at night, two lonely hearts
We were those passers-by
Until they spoke to each other.
We could hardly imagine that
Love was just a glance away from us
One gentle dance.. and -

Since then we have not parted
It was love with first sight to the tombstone.
But it all started with one glance.
On a night passerby **

* In the original - "share love", which is somewhat more abstract
(and by the way, to be precise, there is "before this night is over")
** In fact, a more accurate translation of the last lines reads something like this:
"this is how things turned out well for the night wanderers" (S.S.)

Reviews

The translation is very good.
There are only minor remarks:
1) At the beginning of the line "Call for yourself - and ..."
little crash. Better like this: "And call for yourself, and -
2) Stranger is not a wanderer and not a passerby, but a stranger, a stranger, a stranger, a stranger, an outsider, a foreigner, a foreigner; strange, strange, unfamiliar.
There is neither a wanderer nor a passer-by in this list.
But this is the right of the author of the translation: the overwhelming majority of wanderers are strangers, and if they walk in parallel for some time, they can exchange glances repeatedly, and talk to each other, and even fall in love with each other ...

True, I got a completely different option. And also equirhythmic:

Hello Vyacheslav!
Indeed, "and" can be added there, it will be better. I'll do it, thanks!
As for strangers, then it just seemed difficult for me to cram this long word :) Although you did it quite successfully!
In addition, the idea of movement, and not just a static "unfamiliarity", is also present in my other lines. Although the movement was implied, rather, not along the street, but through life ...

Strangers in the night exchanging glances
Wond "ring in the night what were the chances
We "d be sharing love before the night was through

Something in your eyes was so inviting
Something in you smile was so exciting
Something in my heart told me I must have you

Strangers in the night

and

Love was just a glance away, a warm embracing dance away

Ever since that night we've been together
Lovers at first sight, in love forever

Frank Sinatra

Strangers in the night, exchanged glances
Believing in the night that this is a chance
Find your love
While the night is on.

Something in your eyes was so inviting
Something about your smile was so exciting
Something in my heart
Told me that I should have you.

Strangers in the night, two lonely person,
We were strangers in the night before
Until we said our first hello!

We did not know,
That our love is a step away from us,
The warmth of the dance enveloped us and -

Became true
For strangers in the night

... love was a step away from us,
The warmth of the dance enveloped us and -
From this night forward, we will always be together.
Love at first sight, love forever.
Became true
For strangers in the night

Translation: Wanderers in the night

Strangers in the night
Strangers before
Catching a glance in the night
In silent hope
meet love,
Until dawn came.

By the call of women's eyes
Spellbound,
Instantly with your smile
Intoxicated,
I understood with my heart:
Without them, I have no life.

We wandered through the night.
Before the first words
At our meeting that night
Two lonely hearts
Warmed only dreams.
Did we know...
Everything came to us as salvation, and

From that last night
We are with you
And forever close
That first look.
Since that night
The world is me and you.

The heat of hugs, the sweetness of oblivion -
Everything came to us as salvation ...

From that last night
We are with you
And forever close
That first look.
Since that night
The world is me and you.
