Concert at the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory, 2004
Ossipov National Academic Folk Instruments Orchestra of Russia

Однозвучно гремит колокольчик
Однозвучно гремит колокольчик,
И дорога пылится слегка,
И уныло по ровному полю
Разливается песнь ямщика.
Столько грусти в той песне унылой,
Столько грусти в напеве родном,
Что в душе моей хладной, остылой
Разгорелося сердце огнем.
И припомнил я ночи иные
И родные поля, и леса,
И на очи, давно уж сухие,
Набежала, как искра, слеза.
Однозвучно гремит колокольчик,
И дорога пылится слегка.
И замолк мой ямщик, а дорога
Предо мной далека, далека...
The Lonely Coach-Bell
Oh, how lonely the coach bell is ringing,
And the dust from the road fills the air.
And the coachman's sorrowful singing
Floats across the wild fields in despair.
That sad song overflows with such feeling,
So much grief can be heard in that strain,
That my cold heart, long hardened and weary
In my bosom was kindled again.
I recalled other nights, other wand'rings,
And the fields and the forests so dear,
And my eyes, which so long have been arid,
Became moistened like jewels with a tear.
Oh, how lonely the coach bell is ringing,
As it swings in the night to and fro.
And my coachman has now fallen silent,
And I still have a long way to go.
