by Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)
Translation by Mikhail Yur'yevich Lermontov (1814 - 1841)

Ein Fichtenbaum steht einsam
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT CHI DUT ENG ENG FRE HEB ITA
Ein Fichtenbaum steht einsam
Im Norden auf kahler Höh';
Ihn schläfert; mit weißer Decke
Umhüllen ihn Eis und Schnee.

Er träumt von einer Palme,
Die fern im Morgenland,
Einsam und schweigend trauert
Auf brennender Felsenwand.

На севере диком стоит одиноко
На голой вершине сосна,
И дремлет, качаясь, и снегом сыпучим
Одета, как ризой, она.

И снится ей всё, что в пустыне далёкой,
В том крае, где солнца восход,
Одна и грустна на утёсе горючем
Прекрасная пальма растёт.
