My favourite English version of the popular Russian folk song sung by Al Bowlly with pics of dark-eyed people. (Don't mind some blue-eyed in this vid. I just couldn't find enough with dark eyes)

  • It's neither Russian nor folk... The lyrics has been written by Ukrainian poet Yevgen Grebinka in 1848, music has been composed by German author Florian Hermann in 1884.

  • First song I learned on piano as a child.

  • Hauntingly beautiful. Well done Alfruna

  • @laconically befpre than 1848...

    was published for 1st time in Literaturnaya gazeta, early 1843.

    so was written ever before that :P

    Was published with the arrangement of Florian Hermann's Valse-Hommage op.21,

    done by Sofus Gerdal in 1884.

    So was composed before than that :P

  • Спасибо, я любила его! Super!!

  • OMG, OMG!!! I don't know which is my favorite Al Bowlly song!! lol....

    It's a tie between this one and "Close Your Eyes"

    Absolutely Awesome! I'm totally in love with Al Bowlly, and I'm 25 yrs old!!! I think I might be a little too late for that one! :)

  • Thank you for posting this lovely rendition of Dark Eyes. Maya

  • @GutSamaritan laconically is right you dumbass... check your languages.... start with english because what you have been typing here looks like the work of a 3 year old :S

  • @laconically Don't say this Bullshit to anyone. These guys had no such music and lyrics. Close but not even warm. You must be stupid dumb saying this or ukrainien what is a lot worse 'cause in that case you have not brains only FAT in you head. I cant believe how dumb some people are. But ain't surprised about ukrainiens.

  • @laconically this is russian song mabey vryte some ukrainan poet but this is trad mark vor rassian and allyes be russiaa:)

  • Carrément sublime ! Je pense que nous avons tout à apprendre de cette interprétation ancienne et si palpitante.
