by Aleksey Nikolayevich Pleshcheyev (1825 - 1893)

Noch' proletala nad mirom
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Noch' proletala nad mirom,
  Sny na ljudej navevaja;
S temno-lazurevoj rizy 
  Sypalis' zvezdy, sverkaja.

Starye moshchnye duby,
  Vechnozelenye jeli
[Grustnye ivy]1 listvoju 
  Nochi navstrechu shumeli.

[Radostno volny]2 zhurchali, 
  Obraz jejo otrazhaja;
[Rozh naklonjalas',]1 sil'neje
  Pakhla trava lugovaja.

[Kriki kuznechikov rezvykh]1
  I solov'inye [treli]3,
V khore khvalebnom slivajas',
  V vozdukhe tikho zveneli,

I ulybalasja krotko
  Noch', nad zemlej proletaja ...
S temno-lazurevoj rizy
  Sypalis' zvezdy, sverkaja...
