Dolja materi (Akhmatova, set by E. Klepalov) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


,,Gde, vysokaja, tvoj cyganenok,
Tot, chto plakal pod chernym platkom,
Gde tvoj malen'kij pervyj rebenok,
Chto ty znajesh', chto pomnish' o nem?"

"Dolja materi - svetlaja pytka,
Ja dostojna jejo ne byla.
V belyj raj rastvorilas' kalitka,
Magdalina synochka vzjala.

Kazhdyj den' moj - veselyj, khoroshij,
Zabludilas' ja v dlinnoj vesne,
Tol'ko ruki toskujut po noshe,
Tol'ko plach jego slyshu vo sne.

Stanet serdce trevozhnym i tomnym,
I ne pomnju togda nichego,
Vse brozhu ja po komnatam temnym,
Vse ishchu kolybel'ku jego.``
