Sleep my joy, sleep where this song comes from. The story of a lullaby

Lullaby of the bear from the film “Umka”

Mixing the snow with a spoon,
The night is coming,
Why aren't you sleeping, silly?
Your neighbors are sleeping
White bears,
Sleep quickly too, baby.

We are floating on an ice floe
Like on a brigantine,
Across gray, harsh seas.
And all night the neighbors
Star Bears
They shine for distant ships.

Sleep my joy, sleep

Sleep, my joy, sleep!
The lights went out in the house,
The birds have fallen silent in the garden,
The fish fell asleep in the pond.
The moon is shining in the sky,
The moon is looking out the window...
Close your eyes quickly
Sleep, my joy, sleep!
Go to sleep! Go to sleep!

Everything in the house has been quiet for a long time,
It's dark in the cellar, in the kitchen,
Not a single door creaks.
The mouse is sleeping behind the stove.
There's a noise behind the wall,
What do we care, dear,
Close your eyes quickly
Sleep, my joy, sleep!
Go to sleep! Go to sleep!

My little chick lives sweetly:
There are no worries or worries.
Plenty of toys, sweets,
Lots of fun stuff.
You'll be in a hurry to get everything.
Just don't let the baby cry!
Let it be like this all the days.
Sleep, my joy, sleep!
Go to sleep! Go to sleep!

Sleeping tired toys

Tired toys are sleeping,
The books are sleeping
Blankets and pillows
The guys are waiting
Even a fairy tale goes to bed,
So that we can dream at night,
Close your eyes
Bye-bye...

You can ride in a fairy tale
On the moon,
And rush across the rainbow
On horseback
Make friends with a baby elephant
And catch the feather of the Firebird,
You wish her -
Bye - bye.

Bye bye, all people should
To sleep at night,
Bye bye, tomorrow it will be
Day again
We were very tired during the day,

Sleep - go to sleep,
Bye - bye.

We were very tired during the day,
Let's say good night to everyone,
Sleep - go to sleep,
Bye - bye.

Svetlana's lullaby
(from the movie “Hussar Ballad”)

Lunar glades,
The night is as bright as day...
Sleep, my Svetlana,
Sleep as I slept:
In the corner of the pillow
Touch your nose...
Stars are like freckles
They shine peacefully down.

Moon garden with leaves
It rustles sleepily.
The day will come soon
He promises something.
The candle is burning out,
It will burn to the ground...
Sleep, my heart,
The night is as bright as a dream.

The candle is burning out,
It will burn to the ground...
Sleep, my heart,
Sleep as I slept.

Sleep, child

Sleep, child, sweet dreams,
Everything fell asleep all around.
Peace and quiet
Close your eyes tightly.
The night has come, it's time to sleep,
Sleep, sleep until the morning.
The night has come, it's time to sleep,
Sleep, sleep until the morning.

Sleep, child, sweet dreams,
Everything fell asleep all around.
Peace and quiet
Close your eyes tightly.

The night will pass, and again
The sun will begin to shine.
The night will pass, and again
The sun will begin to shine.

No rain, no snow..."
(“The Stargazer’s Song” from the movie “Little Red Riding Hood”)

No rain, no snow,
Not a cloudy wind -
At midnight cloudless hour.
Opens up the sky
Glittering Depths
For keen and joyful eyes.

Treasures of the Universe
They flicker as if they are breathing,
The zenith is ringing slowly...
And there are such people:
They hear perfectly
As a star says to a star:

Hello!
- Hello!
-Are you shining?
- I’m shining.
- What time is it now?
- Twelfth, approximately.
- There, on Earth, at this hour
You can see us so well!
- What about the children?
- The children are probably sleeping...

How good, from the heart
Babies sleep at night
They sleep happily - some in the cradle, some in the stroller.
Let them dream in a dream,
Like on the moon, on the moon
Moon Bear reads fairy tales aloud.

It's high up there
Someone spilled milk
And the milky road turned out.
And along it, along it
Between the fields of pearls
The month floats by like a white pie.

There on the Moon, on the Moon
On a blue boulder
Moon people look, do not take their eyes off,
Like over the moon, over the moon
Blue ball, earth globe
It rises and sets very beautifully!

Snub noses

Finally, having climbed half the earth,
My boys are fast asleep
A dream has fallen over the blue-eyed country,
My grimy treasures are sleeping,
Snub noses sniffle.

They sleep so peacefully and well,
There are no better guys in the whole world.
Blankets thrown to the side
And bright green peas
They burn on skinned knees.

Well, tomorrow... If only I knew in advance,
How confessional are their ways.
Why should they do this, without a schedule,
Sneaking out of art class
Just go into space on foot.

The clock strikes with tired strokes.
It’s calm on Earth - the children are sleeping.
My desperate boys are sleeping,
My Titovs and Gagarins are sleeping,
Snub noses sniffle.

James Sant: "The artist's wife Elizabeth, and their daughter Maria Edith"

What is the most famous lullaby in the world? Of course this one:

Sleep, my joy, sleep!

The lights in the house went out.

The bees are quiet in the garden,

The fish fell asleep in the pond,

The moon is shining in the sky,

The moon is looking out the window...

Close your eyes quickly

Sleep, my joy, sleep.

Who doesn’t know the gentle and harmonious lullaby “Sleep, my joy, fall asleep.” The melody is so convenient for the voice that it has received the widest distribution in its more than 200 years. summer story. Almost everyone now knows the words to this lullaby. And until recently, most sheet music publishers and performers were sure that this music was V.A. Mozart. But actually it is not!

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756 - 1791)

In 1825, Mozart's widow Constance sent this lullaby to the publisher of Mozart's works, remarking: "The work is very nice, Mozartian in all respects, spontaneous, inventive." Three years later, the lullaby “Sleep, My Joy, Sleep” was published as an appendix to the biography of Mozart that Constance wrote with her second husband, Georg von Nissen. From that time on, “Mozart’s lullaby” was included in collections of his works, and the German poet Matthias Claudius (1740-1815) was listed as the author of the text.

Constanze Weber, Mozart's wife from 1782

However, Mozart’s sister Nannerl did not confirm the version of her brother’s authorship, and Constance herself eventually doubted it. There were musicologists who argued that the lullaby’s music was not like Mozart’s: it was too simple and unpretentious; Even the simplest Mozart songs are more complex.

Maria Anna Walburga Ignatia Mozart (1751- 1829) - elder sister Wolfgang Amadeus. In the family circle and among friends, Maria Anna was called Nannerl.

And at the end of the 19th century. German musicologist Max Friedländer established that the lullaby music was written and published in 1796 by Bernhard Fliess, a Berlin doctor and amateur composer. All that is known about Fliess is that he was born around 1770 into a family of Jewish businessmen, was baptized in 1798, and on March 18, 1791, organized a charity concert in Berlin in memory of Mozart.

The words of the lullaby “Sleep, my joy, sleep” belong to Friedrich Wilhelm Gotter (1746-1797). They are taken from his play Esther, staged in Leipzig in 1795. This play was adapted into modern style the biblical Book of Esther, and a lullaby was sung by the choir of Esther's handmaids. Note that in the original the song begins with the words “Sleep, my prince,” and ends: “Sleep, my prince, fall asleep.” In French translation: “Sleep, my little prince.”

IN Hitler's Germany back to old version about the authorship of Mozart. Musicologist Herbert Gehrigk, publisher of the Nazi Party magazine "Music in War", in the April-May issue of his magazine for 1944, stated that the version of Fliess' authorship was nothing more than a "monstrous falsification" needed by the "Jew Max Friedländer" in order take away the authorship of the lullaby from the Aryans.

Not long ago, another contender for authorship was discovered - the German composer Johann Fleischmann, who died in 1798 at the age of 32. Fleischmann arranged several of Mozart's operas for wind instruments, and in 1796 he published music for Gotter's lullaby, the beginning of which almost coincides with Fliess's music.

The Russian translation of the lullaby appeared very late - in 1924. It belonged to Sofia Sviridenko (born in 1882, year of death unknown).

William Bouguereau "A young mother looks at her sleeping child"

Sleep, my joy, sleep!

The lights in the house went out;

The bees are quiet in the garden,

The fish fell asleep in the pond,

The moon is shining in the sky,

The moon is looking out the window...

Close your eyes quickly

Sleep, my joy, sleep!

Go to sleep, go to sleep!

Everything in the house has been quiet for a long time,

It's dark in the cellar, in the kitchen,

Not a single door creaks,

The mouse is sleeping behind the stove.

Someone sighed behind the wall -

What do we care, dear?

Close your eyes quickly

Sleep, my joy, sleep!

Go to sleep, go to sleep!

My little chick lives sweetly:

There are no worries, no worries;

Plenty of toys, sweets,

Lots of fun stuff.

You'll hurry to get everything,

Just don't let the baby cry!

May it be like this all the days!

Sleep, my joy, sleep!

Go to sleep, go to sleep!

Music by Bernhard Fliess

Words by Friedrich Wilhelm Gotter

Translation by Sofia Sviridenko

In the first publication, the lullaby began with the line “Sleep, my prince, go to sleep” - exactly according to the German text - and the line “Sleep, my joy, go to sleep” was repeated three times in the conclusion. In the second edition of the translation (1925), the lullaby began with the words “Sleep, my beloved, fall asleep.” But very soon it began to be performed with the first line “Sleep, my joy, sleep” - apparently, without any participation of the translator.

In 1932, another translation appeared - by Vsevolod Rozhdestvensky: “Sleep, my son, without worries,” (...) / Sleep, my dear son.” But this translation did not catch on with us and has sunk into oblivion.

Sviridenko's translation is quite close to the original. But his most famous line - “Sleep, my joy, sleep” - does not belong to Gotter or Sofia Sviridenko. It is taken from the “Lullaby Song” by Konstantin Balmont, published in his collection “Under the Northern Sky” (1894) and extremely popular at the beginning of the 20th century:

Konstantin Dmitrievich Balmont (1867 - 1942)

Fragrant linden flowers are blooming...

Sleep, my joy, sleep!

The night will envelop us in gentle darkness,

Lights will light up in the distant sky,

The wind will whisper mysteriously about something,

And we will forget the past days,

And we will forget the torment to come...

Sleep, my joy, sleep!

(...)

Oh my swallow, oh my baby

In a cold world, you and I are alone,

We will share joy and sorrow equally,

Cling closer to a reliable heart,

We won't change, we won't part,

We will be together night and day.

Together with you we will calm down forever...

Sleep, my joy, sleep!

(Konstantin Balmont)

Tired toys are sleeping, books are sleeping.
Blankets and pillows are waiting for the guys.
Even a fairy tale goes to bed,
So that we can dream about it at night.
Wish her:
Bye-bye.

Be sure to do housework at this hour
A dream walks quietly and quietly near us.
It's getting darker outside the window,
Morning is wiser than night.
Close your eyes
Bye-bye.

In a fairy tale you can ride on the moon.
And ride across the rainbow on a horse.
Make friends with a baby elephant
And catch the Firebird's feather.
Close your eyes
Bye-bye.

Bye-bye, all people should sleep at night.
Bye-bye, tomorrow will be another day.
We were very tired during the day,
Let's say to everyone: "Good night!"
Close your eyes
Bye-bye.

“Long day, long day sailing for the apples”

“Day day, tens of days float for the apples” - this is the song that ends “Kalykhanka” on the Belarus-3 TV channel. The magical music of Vasily Rainchik and the words of Genady Buravkin suit each other perfectly.

Attempts by the management in 2008 to replace the now familiar “kalykhanka” performed by Lika Yalinskaya with a new one performed by Irina Dorofeeva were not crowned with success. And for more than 20 years now, this lullaby has been putting little Belarusians to sleep.

Long day, long day,
Swim behind the apples.
Blues are worth, sons are worth
Adoption is far away.
The runaway bunnies are all on their toes,
Smokey bird galas,
And beads and nests were buried
Ours is ours.
Bye-bye, bye-bye,
Close the vachanyats.
Pakrat on the race
The sharp-spotted scops owls are fading,
Gulni ўse, Kazki ўse
Pahavany paddushki.
Sleep and mice and horns,
Sleep the cars at the garages,
You are your mother's dachshund
Tsikha-tsikhenka beds.
Bye-bye, bye-bye,
Close the vachanyats.
Bye-bye, bye-bye,
Go to sleep with us now.

“Kneading the snow with a spoon, the night is coming”

“Kneading the snow with a spoon, the night is coming big" - the bewitching voice of Aida Vedishcheva, performing “The Bear’s Lullaby” from the cartoon “Umka” (1969!), is familiar to more than one generation of children. The music of Evgeny Krylatov to the poems of Yuri Yakovlev awakens in adults all the most tender and kind that is in a person.

Mixing the snow with a spoon, the night is coming,
Why aren't you sleeping, silly?
Your neighbors - polar bears - are sleeping,
Sleep quickly too, baby!
We are sailing on an ice floe, like on a brigantine,
Across gray harsh seas.
And all night the neighbors - star bears -
They shine for distant ships.

“The cricket is singing behind the stove”

“A cricket is singing behind the stove” - this lullaby is perfect for sons. The poems of Emilia Aspasia to the music of Raymond Pauls are very familiar to modern grandmothers from the film “The Long Road in the Dunes,” which was released on Soviet screens at the very beginning of the 1980s. Valentina Talyzina’s voice, like a sweet dream, takes you into sweet captivity from the first words of the song.

A cricket sings behind the stove,
Don't cry, calm down, son,
Look, it's frosty outside,
Bright starry night,
Bright starry night,
Bright starry night.
Well, if there is no bread,
Look at the pure sky,
The stars are shining in the sky,
The moon floats on a boat,
The moon floats on a boat,
The month floats on a boat.
You sleep, and I will sing to you,
How nice it is in the sky
Like you and me, gray cat
It will take you to heaven in a sleigh,
It will take you to heaven in a sleigh,
It will take you to heaven in a sleigh.
There will be joy in heaven
There will be sweet nuts
There will be new boots
And honey gingerbreads,
And honey gingerbreads,
And honey gingerbread.
Well, get some rest,
I'll give you a golden sabre,
Just go to sleep quickly, son,
My restless cricket,
My restless cricket,
My restless cricket.
