Nicolai Rimsky-KorsakovThe legend of the invisible city of Kitezh
In praise of the wilderness
Ah, you forest, my forest, beautiful wilderness
Oh Lord, what is the meaning of this
Whose child are you, where have you come from?
Tell me, fair maiden, do you go to pray in God´s church? (The legend of the invisible city of Kitezh
The legend of the invisible city of Kitezh
Well spoken, fair maiden!
Hail to thee, lips of honey
As soon as the marksmen came out into the open field
Show them, Mikhaylushka, show them, playful bear
So what is that to us?
Hey lads! I can hear some bells
Get away, clear off, you dog!
Over the bridges of guelder-tree
Gayda! Gay! Gayda!
Gayda! Gay! Stop, you godless heathens!
Good fortune to you, citizens of Kitezh
O glory, vain wealth
Wondrous queen of heaven, our holy protectress!
Kitezh looted and us taken alive as a tribute
What are we standing about for, sisters?
Entr´acte to the second scene 'The Battle near Kerzhenets' (The legend of the invisible city of Kite
The legend of the invisible city of Kitezh
Here is the oak grove, and here is the lake
Oh, you Tartar Murzas! I don´t need the gold or silver
Ah, my dear husband, my hope!
Hear me, maiden... Lovely princess!
Go, servant of the Lord!
Oh, I can´t go on, Grishenka
Earth, our merciful mother!
Grishenka!... He will not listen
The free birds are toning up their voices
Is that you, radiant light of my eyes?
The bridgegroom has come
Entr´acte to Scene 2
The doors of paradise have opened for you
Radiant kindom! O God!
May the grace of God be with you
Stay with us here for ever more
Grishenka, even though you are feeble in mind
The rainy day has waned
The clouds begin to scatter
Oh, if though couldst for one moment
Not the wind, blowing from hights
The octave
The messenger
The upas tree
