My envelope, you’ve traveled for so long,
The last lines were somehow forgotten.
But that’s why they call it the Far East,
Because it lies very far in the east.

You’re waiting impatiently for an answer,
Pleasant news in few words.
Here we meet the dawns
Eight hours earlier than you.

Here the ships roar till morning
Amidst the noise of the ocean.
They don’t call it Pacific
Because it’s quiet and peaceful.

You’re waiting impatiently for an answer,
Pleasant news in few words.
Here we meet the dawns
Eight hours earlier than you.

You shouldn’t be scared of stories,
As though this is the earth’s edge.
Sakhalin is behind us, and then
Our round beautiful planet.

You’re waiting impatiently for an answer,
Pleasant news in few words.
Here we meet the dawns
Eight hours earlier than you.

What should we say? Of course, it’s not heaven.
But it’s difficult to write the letters.
You know, my dear, you should come here;
The Far East is not so far away.

Soon you’ll receive an answer -
Pleasant news in few words.
Together we’ll meet the dawns,
Only eight hours earlier.
