Mne kazhet·sya poroyu, chto soldaty
S krovavykh ne prishedshiye poley,
Ne v zemlyu nashu polegli kogda-to,
A prevratilisʹ v belykh zhuravley.

Oni do sey pory s vremen tekh dalʹnikh
Letyat i podayut nam golosa.
Ne potomu lʹ tak chasto i pechalʹno
My zamolkayem glyadya v nebesa?

Letit, letit po nebu klin ustalyy,
Letit v tumane na iskhode dnya.
I v tom stroyu yestʹ promezhutok malyy -
Bytʹ mozhet eto mesto dlya menya.

Nastanet denʹ i zhuravlinoy stayey
Ya poplyvu v takoy zhe sizoy mgle.
Iz-pod nebes po-ptichʹi oklikaya
Vsekh vas, kogo ostavil na zemle.

Mne kazhet·sya poroyu, chto soldaty
S krovavykh ne prishedshiye poley,
Ne v zemlyu nashu polegli kogda-to,
A prevratilisʹ v belykh zhuravley.

Where can I find the poem in German

[@Amirnake]

So hammy...for talking voice singing specially.

[@sincerus-sincerus793]

"Unfortunately, in this performance there are vocal inaccuracies in the melody and rhythm of the song by Jan Frenkel..."

[@PianoGesang]

I agree but I assume that the singer did so intentionally. Whether that was a bold new interpretation or a sacrilege lies in the eye of the beholder.

[@sincerus-sincerus793]

​@@PianoGesang ​ "As I (and copyright, as I know) can thinking, an interpretation ends, when begins new text - if he named it ""Zhuravli" by Yan Frenkel", but not "My variations on Theme of "Zhuravli"" he must care about autor`s text. Isn`t it?"

[@nortmeyerisolde7652]

IT was not only the text, which was different
