by Mikhail Yur'yevich Lermontov (1814 - 1841)

Она поёт
 (Sung text for setting by C. Cui)
 Matches original text
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Она поёт -- и звуки тают,
Как поцелуи на устах,
Глядит -- и небеса играют
В её божественных глазах;
Идёт ли -- все её движенья,
Иль молвит слово -- все черты
-- Так полны чувства, выраженья,
Так полны дивной простоты.
