Ночь идёт ‑ и темнеет

Language: Russian (Русский)

Our translations: CHI ENG FRE

Ночь идёт - и темнеет
Бледно-синий восток...
От одежд её веет
По полям ветерок.

День был долог и зноен...
Ночь идёт и поёт 
колыбельную песню
И к покою зовёт.

Грустен взор её тёмный,
Одинок её путь...
Спи-усни, моё сердце!
Отдохни... Позабудь.

夜降临，天色渐暗/ 在淡蓝的东方

Language: Chinese (中文) after the Russian (Русский)

夜降临，天色渐暗
在淡蓝的东方...
她的衣服常舒卷
风拂过田野上。

白天漫长而闷热……
夜来临并唱起
那优美的摇篮歌
呼唤归于静谧。

黑眸子悲伤相侵
路途孤独凄怆……
睡吧，睡吧，我的心！
休息...将之遗忘。
