The lark

Aleksandr Yegorovich Varlamov

Between the sky and the earth

A song is heard

An unending stream of sound

Pours louder, louder.

Unseen is the singer in the field

Where sings so loudly

Above his mate

The sonorous skylark.

The wind carries the song,

To whom, it does not know.

She to whom it is sung,

She will understand who it is from.

Pour on, my song

Of sweet hope

Someone remembers me

And sighs furtively.
