А.Плещеев Исполняет Сергей Лемешев Дирижер - Владимир Федосеев Оркестр русских народных инструментов Концерт Сергея Лемешева (1971) Sergei Lemeshev’s Recital (1971) Conductor - Vladimir Fedoseyev The USSR Radio Russian Folk Instrument Orchestra Lyrics in English: In the midst of the shimmering, mirroring waves Glides like swans the rocking boat Ah, on softly shimmering waves of joy Glides the soul away like the boat. For from the heavens down on the waves Dances the evening glow round about the boat. Above the treetops of the western glade Beckons to us amiably the ruddy glow; Under the branches of the eastern glade Rustle the reeds in the ruddy glow. Joy of the heavens and peace of the glades Breathes the soul in the reddening glow. Ah, with dewy wings On the rocking waves, time escapes from me Tomorrow with shimmering wings Like yesterday and today may time again escape from me, Until I on towering, radiant wings Myself escape from changing time.
