Good evening, Moscow. (This is a part of beatiful song... but actually this is my next battle with "THE" and "A":) Good evening, Moscow. Good evening, my city, which was fascinated by spring. The city-jazz, city-blues, city-rock-n-roll. City of songs and poems, of calm parks, of old walls, I have come to go for a walk with you this night. Lights are glowing through alleys and boulevards. The rain is strolling on the sidewalk, we are alone with it on the street. Hey, city, hey, you shouldn't spare diamonds. How much of them into the dance of lanterns. Foliage are whispering inexplicit words. You are my city, Moscow. Добрый вечер, Москва. Добрый вечер, город мой, околдованный весной. Город-джаз, город-блюз, город-рок-н-ролл. Город песен и поэм, тихих парков, старых стен, Я с тобой в эту ночь побродить пришёл. По переулкам и бульварам горят загадочно огни. Гуляет дождь по тротуарам, мы с ней на улице одни. (припев) Хэй, город, хэй, бриллиантов не жалей, Сколько их в танце фонарей. Шепчет листва непонятные слова, Это ты мой город, Москва.

I could try to make the English rhyme.

But today I didn't have the time.

I hope I've helped you in some way.

If not, I'll try another day.

Good Evening, Moscow.

(This is a part of a beautiful song... but actually this is my next battle with "THE" and "A":)

Good Evening, Moscow.

Good evening, my city, which was bewitched by spring.
City-jazz, city-blues, city-rock-'n'-roll.    
City of songs and poems, of quiet parks, of old walls,
I have come to stroll with you this night.
Mysterious lights are glowing along alleys and boulevards.
The rain is ambling along the sidewalk, we are alone with it on the street.

Hey, city, hey, don't regret the diamonds, 
How many of them in the lanterns' dance. 
The leaves are whispering unintelligible words.
You are my city, Moscow.


Добрый вечер, Москва.

Добрый вечер, город мой, околдованный весной.
Город-джаз, город-блюз, город-рок-н-ролл.
Город песен и поэм, тихих парков, старых стен,
Я с тобой в эту ночь побродить пришёл.
По переулкам и бульварам горят загадочно огни.
Гуляет дождь по тротуарам, мы с ней на улице одни.

(припев)
Хэй, город, хэй, бриллиантов не жалей,
Сколько их в танце фонарей.
Шепчет листва непонятные слова,
Это ты мой город, Москва.

Mari, I'm glad that you share my affection and interest in this city. Often we do not notice beauty when we see it every day and then a song or other people remind us about this:) Thank you.

Charlescuy, I'm interested in the correction, because currently this song is just material for the study of English. I will be grateful if you find a time to correct. Thank you for your comment and for attention to my page.

What a great song/poem! I have been to Moscow and think it is a very vibrant city with many historic sites and lots of things to do.

You have probably translated the song correctly. If I correct the English, then the song will probably no longer be correct.
