Ночь
 (Sung text for setting by N. Rimsky-Korsakov)
 See original
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ночь пролетала над миром,
  Сны на людей навевая;
С темно-лазуревой ризы 
  Сыпались звезды, сверкая.

Старые мощные дубы,
  Вечнозеленые ели
 ...  листвою 
  Ночи навстречу шумели.

Tikhije vody журчали, 
  Образ её отражая;
 ...  сильнее
  Пахла трава луговая.

 ... 
  И соловьиные pesni,
В хоре хвалебном сливаясь,
  В воздухе тихо звенели,

И улыбалася кротко
  Ночь, над землей пролетая ...
С темно-лазуревой ризы
  Сыпались звезды, сверкая...
