Ljudi spjat (Fet, set by S. Taneyev) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Ljudi spjat; moj drug, pojdjom v tenistvyj sad.
Ljudi spjat, odni lish' zvjozdy k nam gljadjat,
Da i te ne vidjat nas sredi vetvej,
I ne slyshat, slyshit tol'ko solovej...

Da i tot ne slyshit: pesn' jego gromka.
Razve slyshat tol'ko serdce da ruka.
Slyshit serdce, skol'ko radostej zemli,
Skol'ko schastija sjuda my prinesli.

Da ruka, uslysha, serdcu govorit,
Chto chuzhaja v nej pylajet i drozhit,
Chto i jej ot `etoj drozhi gorjacho,
Chto k plechu nevol'no klonitsja plecho...
