Ночевала тучка золотая
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ночевала тучка золотая На груди утёса-великана; Утром в путь она умчалась рано, По лазури весело играя. Но остался влажный след в морщине Старого утёса. Одиноко Он стоит; задумался глубоко, И тихонько плачет он в пустыне...

Eine Wolke ließ beim Glanz der Sterne
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Russian (Русский)
Eine Wolke ließ beim Glanz der Sterne Nachts an hoher Felsenbrust sich nieder, Als der Morgen anbrach, zog sie wieder Fröhlich fürbaß in die blaue Ferne. Doch es blieb die feuchte Spur Eingefurcht dem alten Fersen, Einsam schaut er auf die Flur Trüb versenkt in tiefes Sinnen, Und ein Thränenstrom entquillt Seiner Stirn...
