Текст песни Владимир Щукин - Максимилиан Волошин - Венеция

VENICE

Carved facades, patterned buildings
On the scarlet fire of the setting camp
Sad and austere, like Orcani's frescoes,
They burn like mother-of-pearl in the ebb of fog ...

Glimmer wearily in the ebb tide
Fiery sparkles of distant lagoons ...
The evening sun is like a scarlet wound ...
All over the endless sadness of fading.

About the splendor of the fall, about the sadness of fading!
Veronese silk of sunset Cana,
Brocade Tintoreto ... and in the clouds of shimmer
Titian's autumn and copper tones ...

Like autumn leaves from Titian's paintings
Flowers are flying around ... the last tribute I
I carry to the flown pages of the novel,
In the channels following the reflected buildings ...

Venice mournful patterned buildings
They burn like mother-of-pearl in the ebb of fog.
All over the endless sadness of fading
Titian's autumn and copper tones.
