Our translations: ENG
Ни отзыва, ни слова, ни привета, Пустынею меж нами мир лежит, И мысль моя с вопросом без ответа Испуганно над сердцем тяготит! Ужель среди часов тоски и гнева Прошедшее исчезнет без следа, Как лёгкий звук забытого напева, Как в мрак ночной упавшая звезда?

Kein Wort von dir, kein Widerhall, kein Gruß
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Russian (Русский)
Die Welt liegt zwischen uns wie eine Wüste, kein Widerhall, kein Wort von dir, kein Gruß! Als ob mein Fragen keine Antwort wüßte und aufgeschreckt mein Herz bedrücken muß. In diesen Stunden voll des Zorns und Dranges, - es soll Vergangnes ohne Spur verwehn? als leichter Klang vergessenen Gesanges, als Stern, der nachts entglitt des Himmels Höhn?
From a Tchaikovsky score.
