Ona pojot (Lermontov, set by C. Cui, N. Myaskovsky) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Ona pojot -- i zvuki tajut,
Kak poceluji na ustakh,
Gljadit -- i nebesa igrajut
V jejo bozhestvennykh glazakh;
Idjot li -- vse jejo dvizhen'ja,
Il' molvit slovo -- vse cherty
-- Tak polny chuvstva, vyrazhen'ja,
Tak polny divnoj prostoty.
