i was bored and it was rainy so here is a cover of bulat okudzhava's immortal and beautiful song "the sentries of love" (chasovye lyubvi)
rough translation of the lyrics:
The sentries of love stand on Smolenskiy Street
The sentries of love are sleepless on Nikitskaya street
The sentries of love walk along Petrovsky
The sentries are always meant to change 1/
O great, eternal army
Where words and rubles have no power
And everyone's a private
Because love has no marshals

May your campaign never end
I recognize only these soldiers
Through winters and blizzards
Spring is arriving in Moscow 2/
The sentries of love stand on Volkhonka Street
The sentries of love are sleepless on Neglinnaya Street
The sentries of love walk along Arbat street
Sentries are always supposed to change
here is the original, i wish i could play guitar and was a native russian speaker
also if someone (@MashaKisel1? @les_ja? @Alexey__Kovalev? has a better translation for Неизменно часовым полагается смена thatd be dope
