For those who often hear us say "the sunrise will come in the summer", but don't understand what it's all about, a reminder:

Кола Бельды (1929-1993) Танго "Чукча в чуме" [1], 
[...]
А чукча в чуме, чукча в чуме
Полярной ночью ждет рассвета.
С запорошенного неба
Звезды льют неяркий свет.
А чукча в чуме ждет рассвета,
А рассвет наступит летом,
А зимой рассвета в тундре
За полярным кругом нет.
[...]
Corrected Google Translate:

Chukchi in the tent, Chukchi in the tent
In the Polar night waiting for the dawn.
From snow-powdered sky
Stars shed dim light.
Chukchi in the tent waiting for the dawn,
But the sunrise will come in the summer,
In the winter, sunrise in tundra
Above Arctic Circle is never.
[...]
