Дуют ветры
Language: Russian (Русский)
Available translation(s): ENG FRE GER
Дуют ветры,
ветры буйные,
Ходят тучи,
[тучи]1 тёмные.
Не видать в них
света белого,
Не видать в них
солнца красного.
Во сырой [мгле]2,
за туманами,
Только ночка,
лишь чернеется —
В эту пору
непогожую
Одному жить —
сердцу холодно.
Грудь другую
Ему надобно:
Огонь-душу —
Красну девицу!
С ней зимою —
Лето тёплое;
При бездольи —
Горе — не горе!
R. Glière sets stanzas 1-4
M. Musorgsky sets stanzas 1-3, 1-2

Es pfeift der Wind
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Russian (Русский)
Es pfeift der Wind,
es pfeift der rasende Orkan.
Es droht das Wolkenmeer,
droht das dunkle Wolkenmeer.
Dunkle Wolken ziehen drohend auf,
ziehen finster auf.
Nie schaust du durch den Wolkenschleier,
kaum, dass du ahnst die weite Welt.
Nie schaust du durch den Wolkenschleier.
Wo ist nur die liebe Sonne,
die schöe, gute?
Ja, die liebe Sonne ist fern.
Doch im kalten feuchten Dunst
hinter Nebeln
lauert schon die Nacht,
verhüllt mit schwarzem Mantel uns.
