Song title Corner Mine
Written by Nikolaj Mikhajlovitj Rubtsov (1936-1971)
About

It is light in my room
It is from the nighty star
My dear mother grabs the bucket
She quietly brings me some water....
My red flowers in the garden
Are all withered
The grounded boat in the river
is soon all rotten
The laces of the willow
faintly appear on my wall.
Tomorrow will be a heavy and troubled day!
I shall water the plants,
Think about my destiny
And build a boat
under the light the nighty star
