LYRICS
How quite and cool it is here,
How lovely the shimmering light on the lake.
The fragrance of the poplars is so sweet.
Everything is asleep, only the nightingale is awake,
and his melodious song fills the night.
What silence, not a leaf trembles,
and the light of the moon shimmers.
Ah, my beloved Galia, what she is dreaming about,
and does she see her Levko in her dreams?
Sleep, my beauty, sleep peacefully.
Let the most serene dreams come to visit you.
Are you thinking, are you dreaming of me?
Of me, who night and day think only of you?
May a wonderful dream reveal itself to you,
of perfect happiness with your gentle love.
May you see the two of us united for life!
Ah, my beauty, we can't live together.
