Четыре романса (Chetyre romansa) = Four romances , opus 5

by Aleksandr Abramovich Kreyn (1883 - 1951)

1. К луне  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Russian (Русский) 
Скиталица небес, печальная луна,
Как скорбно с высоты на землю ты глядишь!
  Не потому ли ты бледна,
  Не потому ли ты грустишь,
Что между ярких звезд свершать свой путь должна
  Всегда, везде - одна,
Не зная, на кого лучистый взор склонить,
Не зная ничего, что можно полюбить!
