The sea-princess

Aleksandr Porfir'yevich Borodin

Come to me at night,

O youthful traveler!

Here under the water

It is cool and calm.

You will rest here

And find sweet sleep,

Rocked by the rippling water,

Where, full of ease,

The waves slumber

On the abandoned shores.

In the ripples of the sea,

after you herself

Swims the Sea-Princess!

She beckons and sings;

To herself she calls you...
