Let us proceed unto a rill, + 

Which in a hilly neighbourhood + 

Seeks, winding amid meadows still, + 

The river through the linden wood. + 

The nightingale there all night long, + 

Spring’s paramour, pours forth her song + 

The fountain brawls, sweetbriers bloom, + 

And lo! where lies a marble tomb + 

And two old pines their branches spread⁠— + 

“Vladimir Lenski lies beneath, + 

Who early died a gallant death,” + 

Thereon the passing traveller read: + 

“The date, his fleeting years how long⁠— + 

Repose in peace, thou child of song.” + 
