Max Richter "Maria the poet 1913"

[mrbobdog261]

stunning. no words to better it really. i have been wondering what the words were to this for a while now, i knew i loved it for a reason, perhaps the words had a vibration that spoke more to the soul than the ears. =)

Wonderful, wonderful music and the drawings are so lovely also!

[karmlol]

As if the English words are the words she speaks... The russian is much prettier, much much prettier, though I do not speak it...

[humito]

for pieces like this, the life was born

[rigormorpheus]

Beautiful...and your drawings are also beautiful. The one at 4:30 is very subtle but very powerful...

[Obniaa]

I love this

Its amazing

[krzhizhanovsky]

Sorry, I should have posted the end first, I forgot that the most recent post would be on top. The poem is called "На трудных тропах бытия" which translates into something like on the difficult tracks (paths) of being (life).

[krzhizhanovsky]

За то, что мне прямая неизбежность -

Прощение обид,

За всю мою безудержную нежность

И слишком гордый вид,

За быстроту стремительных событий,

За правду, за игру...

- Послушайте!- Еще меня любите

За то, что я умру.

[krzhizhanovsky]

К вам всем - что мне, ни в чем не знавшей меры,

Чужие и свои?!-

Я обращаюсь с требованьем веры

И с просьбой о любви.

И день и ночь, и письменно и устно:

За правду да и нет,

За то, что мне так часто - слишком грустно

И только двадцать лет,

[krzhizhanovsky]

Изменчивой, как дети, в каждой мине,

И так недолго злой,

Любившей час, когда дрова в камине

Становятся золой.

Виолончель, и кавалькады в чаще,

И колокол в селе...

- Меня, такой живой и настоящей

На ласковой земле!

[krzhizhanovsky]

Застынет все, что пело и боролось,

Сияло и рвалось.

И зелень глаз моих, и нежный голос,

И золото волос.

И будет жизнь с ее насущным хлебом,

С забывчивостью дня.

И будет все - как будто бы под небом

И не было меня!

[krzhizhanovsky]

Уж сколько их упало в эту бездну,

Разверзтую вдали!

Настанет день, когда и я исчезну

С поверхности земли.

Does anyone knows which particular Poem by Cvetaeva is? The title would let suppose "The Poet", but I have an italian translation of that and it's COMPLETELY DIFFERENT from this text.

Please someone tell me.

Thanks

A masterpiece, even by Max Richters standards. Does anyone know the language being spoken? Is it Polish? Thanks for this.
