Tikho gojdajut'sja (Chernyavsky, set by K. Stetsenko) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Tikho gojdajut'sja v sin'omu mor[i]
[I]skorki-zor[i],
N[i]bi kupa[e]t'sja v khvil[i] bliskuch[i]j
R[i]j {i}kh letjuchij.

Skel[i] zd[i]jmajut'sja, shche ne ostigl[i],
Temn[i], pokhil[i].
V chorn[i]m m[i]zhg[i]r'{i} des' sv[i]tlo pala[e]
[I] pogasa[e]...

Chu[e]te p[i]snju na tikhomu mor[i],
V sin[i]m prostor[i]?
Slukhajte: os' vona znov ob[i]zvalas'
[I] uv[i]rvalas'.

Choven malju[e]t'sja v mor[i] na khvil[i]
Get' za p[i]vmil[i].
Khto, beztalannij, tam khoche vloviti
Dolju u s[i]t[i]?

Tikho kupajut'sja v sin'omu mor[i]
[I]skorki-zor[i].
Tikho gojda[e]t'sja p[i]na tam n[i]zhna,
Vsja b[i]losn[i]zhna.

P[i]snja dalekaja ledve luna[e],
Mov zavmira[e]...
Khaj jomu sudit'sja v n[i]ch cju vrodlivu
Dolja shchasliva!
