Текст песни А.К. Толстой - Ты помнишь ли вечер...

Read by Eugene Patsino

“Do you remember the evening how the sea was noisy”

From the cycle “Crimean essays”

Do you remember the evening how the sea was noisy
A nightingale sang in a dogrose
Fragrant branches of white acacia
Swinging on your hat?

Between stones overgrown with thick grapes,
The road was so narrow;
In silence over the sea we rode along
A hand converged with a hand.

You bent so nicely on the saddle
You are the scarlet dogrose vomited
Bulan horse shaggy mane
With love you cleaned them;

Your clothes are naughty folds
Clinging to the branches, and you
Laughing blithely - flowers on a horse,
In the hands and on the hat are flowers!

Do you remember the roar of the rain stream
And foam and spray all around;
And how far our grief seemed
And how we forgot about him!
