Pavel German (music by Boris Fomin)
(Russian romance)
Day and night the heart sheds its endearment,
Day and night the thoughts are in the whirls,
Day and night as an exciting legend
Hear I your charming words.

Only once in a life can be the meeting,
Only once the fate can break a thread,
Only once I in a winter evening
Long for love to that extent!

The sunset’s forgotten, beams are waning,
By blue shadows the flowers are pained.
Where are you? Why are not you remaining
My beloved? Why can’t I dream again?

Only once in a life can be the meeting,
Only once the fate can break a thread,
Only once I in a winter evening
Long for love to that extent!
(translated by V. Chistyakov)
