Story behind the song
Fyodor Tyutchev, (1803-1873), is considered to be the last of the Great Romantic Russian poets, following Pushkin and Lermontov.
Lyrics
Midday. Fyodor Ivanovich Tyutchev The lazy midday breathes its haze, Lazily the river slides, Pure and ardent azure, Melts the lazy clouds. And all of nature, like a fog, Embraces hot drowsiness, And the great Pan himself In a cave of nymphs now calmly sleeps. 1829
