Vecher (Merezhkovsky, set by A. Gretchaninov) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Laskovyj vecher s zemleju proshalsja 
List shelokhnut'sja ne smel v ozhidan'i.
Grokhot telegi vdali razdavalsja.
Zvezdy, drozha vystupali v molnan'i.

Sineje nebo gluboko i stranno,
No ne smotri ty v nego tak pytlivo,
No ne ishchi v njom razgadki zhelannoj:
sineje nebo, kak grob molchalivo.
