Текст песни Эдгар Алан По - Страна снов

On the lonely path
I came back from the country
Where reigns in the deep darkness
The ghost of Satan's Night
On the outskirts of the distant
Among the outcast spirits -
Out of space and centuries.

There are giant trees
Wrapped in the mists
Invisible are;
The cliffs are dark
From the red sky to the lakes
Infinite to the eye ...
Pouring silent streams
His dead waters
Water, sleepy, dumb
The rivers are dark blue.

There, whitening in the darkness of the night,
Over cold water
Finely entangled snakes
Gentle lilies curl.
And in every corner, -
And near and far, -
Where the lakes are seen
Infinite to the eye, -
Where, whitening in the darkness of the night,
Over cold water
Finely entangled snakes
Gentle lilies curl, -
Near the dormant forests, -
Near moldy ponds
Full of reptiles and dragons, -
Along the peaks and mountain slopes, -
With every step on the way
The wanderer can find there
In the haze of white robes
Shadows of all Memories ...
A little noticeable at a glance
A shiver shakes their outfit;
Who will pass near the shadow of the wondrous
Hears her invocation.
That are old friends
Persons once alive -
Those that heaven and earth
Taken in torture of agony.

Who fate is not spared
The legion endured
He will find peace desired
In that promised country.
This distant, dark land
All sad - a pure paradise!
But a magical abode
Overwhelmed her Lord
Impenetrable veil;
If he is sick
Allows to get into it, -
She will have to admire
All that once bloomed
In smoked glass.

On the lonely path
I came back from the country
Where reigns in the deep darkness
The ghost of Satan's Night
On the outskirts of the distant
Among the outcast spirits -
Out of space and centuries.
