Текст песни Е.Смольянинова - А.Блок.Девушка пела в церковном хоре

She sang in the church choir
Of all the weary in foreign lands ,
Of all the ships gone out to sea ,
About all forgotten their joy .

So I sang her voice , flying in the dome,
And the beam shone on the white shoulder
And from the darkness I watched and listened ,
As a white dress sang in the ray .

And it seemed that the joy will be ,
What's in a quiet backwater all ships ,
What's weary people abroad
Bright life found himself .

And the voice was sweet , and the beam was thin ,
And only high in the king's gate ,
Communion secrets - crying baby
The fact that no one will come back.
