At Bedtime - Falling Asleep (Lyrics)

Hello,

I recently found a rarely performed piece of music for orchestra and chorus by Tchaikovsky, its' called, "At Bedtime - Falling Asleep". Does anyone know where I can get the lyrics to this beautiful piece?

Thanks,

Michael Svoboda


At Bedtime was a student piece which Tchaikovsky set first for unaccompanied voices, and soon afterwards revised for voices with orchestra. Some years later he set the same text by Nikolay Ogarev in No. 1 of the Six Romances and Songs (Op. 27). The original Russian and a Cyrillic translation can be found on the Lied and Art Songs Text Page at:

Hope this helps,
