Shtil

Shtil'- veter molchit
Upal beloj chajkoj na dno
Shtil'- nash korabl' zabyt
Odin, v mire skovannom snom

Mezhdu useh vremen
Bez imen i lic
My uzhne ne zhdem
Chto prosnetsia briz

Shtil'- shodim s uma
Zhara pahnet chernoj smoloj
Smert' odnogo lish' nuzhna
I my, my vernemsia damoj

Ego krov' i plot'
Unov' nasytit nas
A za smert ' emu
Mozhet. Bog vozdast

Chto nas zhdet, more hranit molchan'e
Zhazhda zhit' sushit serdca do dna
Tol'ko zhizn' zdes' nichego ne stoit
Zhizn drugih, no ne tvoia

Net, grom ne grianul s nebes
Kogda pili krov 'kak zver'e
No nesterpimym stal blesk
Kresta, chto my luzhnym zovem

I v postlednij mig
Podnialas' volna
I razdalsia krik
Vperedi zemlia

Chto nas zhdet, more hranit molchan'e
Zhazhda zhit' sushit serdca do dna
Tol'ko zhizn' zdes' nichego ne stoit
Zhizn drugih, no ne tvoia

Shtil'- veter molchit
Upal beloj chajkoj na dno
Shtil'- nash korabl' zabyt
Odin, v mire skovannom snom

Shtil'.....

Chto nas zhdet, more hranit molchan'e
Zhazhda zhit' sushit serdca do dna
Tol'ko zhizn' zdes' nichego ne stoit
Zhizn drugih, no ne tvoia (3x)

Shtil

Shtil stands as a defining track in Rammstein's discography, showcasing the German industrial metal band's signature blend of heavy riffs and atmospheric depth. Released on their 2004 album Reise, Reise, the song exemplifies the group's ability to craft moody, introspective anthems that contrast with their more aggressive hits. The recording features the band's characteristic industrial sound, driven by Till Lindemann's commanding vocals and the tight, rhythmic interplay of the instrumentalists. As a staple of their live performances, Shtil highlights the band's mastery of dynamic shifts, moving seamlessly between quiet tension and explosive power. The track remains a significant song in their catalog, reflecting the artistic maturity and sonic experimentation that have cemented Rammstein's status as leaders in the Neue Deutsche Härte genre.
