I've just made a translation of this song ( I'm russian ) to Portuguese because some friends of mine, who are portuguese, love this song. Long life to Dmitry! We love you, your talent and your devotion to the 'belcanto'
Please accept my apology. If it's any compensation he served in the same regiment for military service as my father-in-law.
I won't talk about Harry Potter again on a Hvorostovski video, I am suitably chastened. Dobby ... will ... not .... do ... anything ... like ... that ...again!!!
Thank you so much for the translation! It makes me appreciate Dmitri's performance even more (if possible!) because now that I understand the words, I realize the he got it exactly right: strength and honor!
This is a fabulous song! I gather it's a wartime patriotic song, but I don't understand Russian. Could someone kindly provide an English translation? Hvorostovsky is wonderful. I recommend all the wartime songs mrbusy has posted. "The Hills of Manchuria" is especially poignant, from the time of the war between Russia and Japan.
C'est magique!

He looks a tad like Draco Malfoy, but he sings like a true Gryffindor!

Yes, My first thought was Draco, too. But better Lucius. :D
Slytherins forever!
If Harry Potter will be an opera, Dmitri should sing Lucius. (And Eric Halfvarsson Voldy!)
He is so, so beautiful. If I were Tatiana, I would go with him and then... live in the snowed woods...

Through storms and tempests this stone will travel
And return to its original place in a worthy manner.
A familiar seagull will flap its wings
And your heart will beat peacefully.
A Black Sea sailor will climb the rock
The one who has brought his motherland new glory
And in a peaceful time
Ships will pass by
Under the sun of our native land.

Sailors-friends have rescued a hero
A storm wave is churning.
He squeezed a stone in his blue hand
And said in a low voice, dying
"When I abandoned my dear rock,
I took a piece of granite with me
So that far away
From the Crimean land
We can never forget it.

Thank you mrbusy very much too. ok and now I finally got the dvd, so here is the official translation (part one):
Cold waves come crashing
by the wide Black Sea
the last sailor has left Sebastopol
He is walking away, fighting the waves.
And a threatening, salted, raging billow
Has been smashing wave after wave against the boat.
In a foggy distance
The land cannot be seen
The ships are far away
