**Song «Two Selves»**

*(based on the poem by Sergey Ostroukh)*

**Verse 1**

There’s a bit of everything inside of me,

Two selves are living deep within.

One is drawn to God, you see,

The other leans toward sin.

**Chorus**

In the longing for heaven, in the pull toward hell,

In the blending of these two realms,

Through hardships and the prizes that we tell —

The gods hold secrets of our dreams.

**Verse 2**

Secrets of happiness lie all around,

Each one’s path is uniquely theirs:

In strict spiritual growth, profound,

In wealth, career, and love affairs.
