Troubadour

Анна Чижова
I have heard once a song
By the night troubadour...
And his tune was so soft!..
And his voice was so pure!..

In the darkness of night,
Burning down despair,
He seemed the starlight
That was calling somewhere.

His inspiring words
Could destroy griefs and pains.
They could purge restless thoughts.
They could break grates and chains.

Like the Knight of the Moon,
Like the Spirit of Hope,
He fought bravely with gloom
And he made it elope.

He relighted the world
With his beautiful art.
He released me from cold
And awakened my heart.

I could listen to him
All night long, and all day...
Troubadour, sing your song,
Sing your song once again!
