---
Isihia (Bulgarian: Исихия, "hesychia", coming from the Greek word "ἡσυχία" and meaning "stillness, rest, quiet, silence") is a Bulgarian music band founded in 2000, the style of which unites elements of Bulgarian folklore and Hesychast Christian chant of the 14th century to create an atmosphere of Balkan spiritual mysticism. Many of the group's songs cover topics of the medieval history of Bulgaria, mostly the period of the Ottoman invasion of the Balkans and the attempts on its repulsion and the early Ottoman rule of Bulgaria, i.e. the 14th-15th century, but also other moments of hardship such as the tragic Battle of Klyuch of 1014.

This is the song "Spasenie" (Salvation) from the 1998 album "Sedem Baladi" (Seven Ballads) of the Bulgarian rock band B.T.R. (and IMHO one of their best songs)
Спасение
Приятелю, прости ми,отивам си сега,
Не намерих сили аз да спра.
Ти казваше аз помня,тогава не повярвах,
Че изходът съвсем не е това.
Защо не светят пак звездите
Защо и слънцето угасна...
Аз изгубих всичко докрай,остана моята душа,
Аз не искам нищо сега,само нея да спася.
Аз изгубих всичко докрай,плаче моята душа,
Аз не искам нищо сега,помогни да я спася.
Виж сега умирам,за друго нямам сили,
Отровата реши съдбата ми.
Ти казваше аз помня,тогава не повярвах,
Че изходът съвсем не е това.
На раздяла ви целувам
и моля аз,простете мойта грешка...
Аз изгубих всичко докрай,остана моята душа,
Аз не искам нищо сега,само нея да спася.
Аз изгубих всичко докрай,плаче моята душа,
Аз не искам нищо сега,само нея да спася.
Чуйте ме,аз моля,чуйте ме за миг поне,
Не погубвайте живота,даже пътят ми да спре.
The lyrics:
"Salvation"
written and composed by Kiril Bojkov and Slavcho Nikolov
Forgive me friends and brothers, I'm leaving you tonight
I didn't turn as strong as I believe.
You told me I remember, that I did not believe you
That one can not escape without a fight.
Still I want to see the star shine
And close my eyes against the sunlight.
That's the end of all I could find the pain is burning in my soul.
Nothing left for me to hold on, there is no going back at all.
Just look at me, I'm dying, I'm shattered all to pieces.
The poison turns to be my destiny.
You told me I remember, that I did not believe you
That one can not escape without a fight.
All I want before you leave me.
Do not forget to kiss me and forgive me.
That's the end of all I could find the pain is burning in my soul.
Nothing left for me to hold on, there is no going back at all.
Solo
All I want before you leave me.
Do not forget to kiss me and forgive me.
That's the end of all I could find the pain is burning in my soul.
Nothing left for me to hold on, there is no going back at all.

Елмаз И Стъкло
Там на хълма в лъчисти небеса
рубинената кула издигаше снага.
Там отдавна живеела сама
жестока, но прекрасна, красивата жена.
Нощем в мрака в плен на самота,
аз чакам да я видя, но не чака тя.
Но достатъчно било зад високото стъкло
да застане тя за да я видя аз.
Тя със своя странен поглед е могла
да превръща хора във вещи със сърца.
И ето аз съм тук в рубинената кула,
превърнат съм на пук в кристално огледало,
в безропотно стъкло.
Но достатъчно било като елмаз и стъкло
да се огледа тя за да я видя аз.
Без да мога обич да получа,
аз живея като птица без криле.
И навярно няма да сполучиш
ти, мое сърце.
Lyrics:
Diamond and Glass
There on the hill in the luminous skies
The ruby tower raised its shape.
There since long she lived alone,
Cruel, but wonderful, the beautiful woman.
At the gloom of the night, in captivity of my loneliness,
I await to see her, she doesn't wait.
But it was enough behind the high glass
That she would stand and I could see her.
She, with her strange looks, could
Turn the people into things with hearts.
And here I am in the ruby tower,
Out of spite I'm turned into a crystal mirror,
Into a humble glass.
But it was enough, like a diamond and a glass,
That she would look herself in the mirror, so that I could see her.
Without being able to receive love,
I live like a bird without wings.
And you probably won't succeed
you, my heart.
My own bad translation, or:
Poetic English translation from http://textove.com/text.php?song=2613
Diamond and Glass
Under the blue skies,
Far beyond the hills
The ruby tower shines
All of glass and ice
Live there for long time
Was the beauty queen
Cold-hearted woman
But as beautiful as seemed
Night-time in shadows
Searching for a song
I try to reach the tower
Where she belongs
Where she belongs
O-oh can you tell me so
O-oh do I stay or do I go
O-oh let me feel your heart
Beating next to mine
Your heartbeat next to mine
Under the moonlight
Captured by her spell
The stormy winds are dancing
Like in devil's veil
Fight me till I'm tired
Love me till I fall
My beauty queen is smiling
From behind the wall
Behind the ruby wall
O-oh can you tell me so
O-oh do I stay or do I go
Let me feel your heart beat next to mine
My love
Getting no love I'm supposed to live
Wingless bird life, down on my knees
Tell me, do you know where you gonna go
You, my lonely heart
Getting no love I'm supposed to live
Wingless bird life, down on my knees
Tell me, do you know where you gonna go
You, my lonely heart
No more
Getting no love I'm supposed to live
Wingless bird, life down on my knees
Tell me, do you know where you gonna go
You, my lonely heart
Getting no love I'm supposed to live
Wingless bird, life down on my knees
Tell me, do you know where you gonna go
You, my lonely heart
You, my lonely heart.
