Verse 1

Ti nochnoi koshmar, chto rastayal po utru

You're a nightmare that melted in the morning

Ya po-prezhnemu krasiva, khot’ kazalos’, chto umru

I'm still beautiful, even though it seemed like I'll die

Mezhdu nami dim, slyozi i goryashchii most

Between us, smoke, tears, and a burning bridge

Pust’ so mnoi tak slozhno bilo, no i ti, patsan, ne prost

It was difficult with me, but also you, dude, aren't simple

Mne ochen’ zhalko tvoyu novuyu devchonku

I feel sorry for your new girl

Ya ne revnuyu, pravda, ya zhe otpustila

I'm not jealous, truly, I let go

Nachnyosh’ opyat’ izdaleka i potikhon’ku

You'll start again from afar and slowly

Posmotrish’ storis, dal’she laik i zakrutilos’

You'll watch my stories, then like and turned around

I poneslas’, opyat’ zvonki, utro v minore

And it begins, the calls again, morning in a minor key

Tak bilo sotni raz, poka ya ne ostila

It happened hundreds of times until I cooled down

No ti ne ponyal pri poslednem razgovore

But you didn't understand during our last conversation

Ya poumnela ili prosto razlyubila

I got smarter or simply fell out of love

Chorus 1

A ti po baram, v p’yanom ugare

And you in bars, in a drunken frenzy

Chto zhe ti paren’, snova vspominaesh’ o tom

What's up, dude, remembering it again

Kak mi gulyali po trotuaram, mokrim i starim

How we walked on sidewalks, wet and old

Utrom pod dozhdyom bosikom

In the morning in the rain barefoot

Po baram, ya tvoya kara

In bars, I'm your punishment

Ya tvoya karma, ti naidyosh’ v tolpe moi tipazh

I'm your karma, you'll find in the crowd my type

Ti podkatil, i ona zapala

You made a move, and she fell for it

No eto vnov’ ne ya, a mirazh

But it's not me again, it's a mirage

Verse 2

Ti nochnoi koshmar, chto letit na kril’yakh nochi

You're a nightmare that flies on the wings of the night

Tebya tyanet ko mne, a menya k tebe ne ochen’

You're attracted to me, but I'm not very attracted to you

Ti ne priezzhai, nedolyublennii mal’chik

Don't come, unloved boy

Perestan’ menya zhdat’ pod oknom v svoei tachke

Stop waiting for me under the window in your car

Ya ne svechu uzhe davno geolokatsiyu

I haven't shared my location for a long time

I ne khozhu v mesta, v kotorikh mi tusili

And I don't go to the places where we hung out

Chtob ti ne smog sovsem nikak ko mne dobrat’sya

So that you can't at all in any way reach me

Vse nashi foto ne v arkhive, a v korzine

All our photos are not in the archive, but in the trash

Chorus 2

A ti po baram, v p’yanom ugare

And you in bars, in a drunken frenzy

Chto zhe ti paren’, snova vspominaesh’ o tom

What's up, dude, remembering it again

Kak mi gulyali po trotuaram, mokrim i starim

How we walked on sidewalks, wet and old

Utrom pod dozhdyom bosikom

In the morning in the rain barefoot

Po baram, ya tvoya kara

In bars, I'm your punishment

Ya tvoya karma, ti naidyosh’ v tolpe moi tipazh

I'm your karma, you'll find in the crowd my type

Ti podkatil, i ona zapala

You made a move, and she fell for it

No eto vnov’ ne ya, a mirazh

But it's not me again, it's a mirage

Outro

Mne ne nuzhni tvoi zvonki, utro v minore

I don't need your calls, morning in a minor key

Ya ne skuchayu po tebe uzhe niskol’ko

I don't miss you anymore at all

Skazala lish’ odno v poslednem razgovore

I said only one thing in our last conversation

Mne ochen’ zhalko tvoyu novuyu devchonku

I feel sorry for your new girl

кара — retribution / punishment

Кара translates to 'retribution' or 'punishment'. It's a powerful and dramatic word that isn't used in everyday conversation, making it stand out.

In the song, ANNA ASTI sings, "Я твоя кара" (I am your retribution). This line is incredibly impactful, as the protagonist declares herself to be the consequence of her ex-lover's actions, adding a layer of intense emotion and a sense of poetic justice to the narrative. It's a memorable word that captures the song's themes of past relationships and their lingering effects.

Ever watched an ex spiral while you just sit back and feel completely fine? That is the exact energy of ANNA ASTI’s pop banger "По Барам" (Across the Bars). She starts off brushing off the drama immediately: "Ты ночной кошмар, что растаял по утру" ('You’re a nightmare that melted away by morning'). While he is stuck getting drunk, trying to trace her steps, and waiting in his car outside her window, she has moved on. She hides her location and deletes their past—literally tossing old memories out: "Все наши фото не в архиве, а в корзине" ('All our photos aren’t archived, they’re in the trash bin').

Her message to him is cold, funny, and deeply satisfying. She crowns herself his ultimate payback: "Я твоя кара / Я твоя карма" ('I am your punishment / I am your karma'). When he is out at night, he tries flirting with women who look just like her ("ты найдёшь в толпе мой типаж" - 'you’ll find my type in the crowd'), but it is only an illusion. The sharpest line in the whole track is not even aimed at him, though. She directs her pity straight at his next flame: "Мне очень жалко твою новую девчонку" ('I feel so sorry for your new girl'). She knows the miserable routine of endless calls and moody mornings ("утро в миноре" - 'a morning in a minor key') that the poor girl is about to endure.
