Dark is the night - Тёмная ночь [Rare instrumental]

Yes. I don't know if there is a youtube video that has this in it so I guess it's rare.

Note, I said in previous comments that I got this from a webforum, I did not. It's quite a long while ago so I wasn't really sure. Until I recently played a game and remember it was from a mod of it.
I don't even remember where I got it from, I think it was from a game mod which is made by some russian dude he didn't make it himself so it's still a mystery where it came from. This could very well be the first time it has been uploaded on youtube or any place where you can listen to music, on the general internet even.

If you don't like this song, you should have a covid test one of the symptoms is lack of taste

[Apeksim]

This will be perfect as the theme of a detective movie set in 1950s Moscow or Leningrad, with the hero being a war veteran who lost his buddies in the early days of Barbarossa.

[Switzlan]

I love this version, I'm happy that you found this.

Темная ночь, только пули свистят по степи
Только ветер гудит в проводах, тускло звезды мерцают
В темную ночь ты любимая знаю не спишь
И у детской кроватки тайком ты слезу утираешь
Как я люблю глубину твоих ласковых глаз
Как я хочу к ним прижаться теперь губами
Темная ночь разделяет, любимая, нас
И тревожная черная степь пролегла между нами
Верю в тебя, в дорогую подругу мою
Эта вера от пули меня темной ночью хранила
Радостно мне, я спокоен в смертельном бою
Знаю, встретишь с любовью меня, что б со мной ни случилось
Смерть не страшна, с ней не раз мы встречались в степи
Вот и теперь надо мною она кружится
Ты меня ждешь, и у детской кроватки не спишь
И поэтому, знаю, со мной ничего не случится

Dark night, only bullets are whistling in the steppe,
Only the wind is wailing through the telephone wires, stars are faintly flickering ...
In the dark night, my love, I know you are not sleeping,
And, near a child's crib, you secretly wipe away a tear.

How I love the depths of your gentle eyes,
How I want to press my lips to them!
This dark night separates us, my love,
And the dark, troubled steppe has come to lie between us.

I have faith in you, in you, my sweetheart.
That faith has shielded me from bullets in this dark night ...
I am glad, I am calm in deadly battle:
I know you will meet me with love, no matter what happens.

Death is not terrible, we've met with it more than once in the steppe ...
And now here it looms over me once again,
You await my return, sitting sleepless near a cradle,
And so I know that nothing will happen to me!

Original dark is night was meant to show the sacrifice but this one shows what was achieved through the safrice.(the sound feels so)

[farmcraft]

You are at a beautiful party with all your comrades laughing and enjoying. You look at their faces they are all happy. Talking to each other about their children and lives. You are enjoying the music that is playing. You see beautiful women dancing and drinking with their lovers. Such a wonderful world. Suddenly you hear a gunshot. Those beautiful colors are all gone. You wake up and see soldiers running around and screaming. Bombs are raining from the sky. You see all your buddies going down. Something drops right in front of you. The bomb throws you on the ground. Everything is blurry and you are slowly closing your eyes. Everything is black and quiet. A piece of music slowly starts playing. It's the same music from the party.

[julienvalley]

although I feel like this version takes away from the vibe of the original song with its more upbeat tone, it's still great nonetheless! I feel like this would be some sort of song which would be played at some war anniversary or museum.

[warwolffritz]

The kind of music I look for all the time, and this fits exactly that

[Mia-stiz]

ENGLISH LYRICS:

Dark is the night, only bullets are whistling around

With the wind singing songs in the wires and the stars

softly gleaming

You are awake though the night has long covered the grounds

As you're rocking the cradle, know you are quietly weeping

Oh, how I want to see that tender look in your eyes Oh how I want just one moment to kiss them gently! We're miles apart. And although stars are lit in the sky Yet the dark steppe between us tonight feels so troubled and empty

I do believe you'll remain ever faithful and true It's this faith that gave courage to me in the fiercest of battles

And I'm at peace 'cause know I'm returning to you And whatever befalls me, for sure, I'll return in fine fettle

I fear no death. It's been taking its toll all around And even now it is raging and will not settle

You are awake though the night has long covered the grounds As you're rocking the cradle know I'll return in fine fettle

[HemantKumar-hlrr]

Feel so nostalgia after listen to this feel peace but peace was never a option

[Snowflakeshallelujah]

This music gives me a Soviet nostalgia that I have never experienced.

[jamesmmcgill]

Imagine you went back in time to post-war Moscow in 1955 while you listening to this music.

[bankerduck]

Just a very beautiful orchestral version.

[kuvvish]

Best music to take a break from the hell hole we're all living in rn

Ащущение будто это играло на параде победы, конца 40х по начало 50х. Очень красиво, парадно и никаких слов. Потому что слова знали и пели люди. Те люди что пронесли её сквозь годы войны.
Мне очень нравится. Спасибо.
P. S. Радует что всё больше людей начинает любить и уважать советское прошлое. И ещё больше радует когда это происходит за пределами нашей страны... Хотя за границей, СССР любят даже больше. Что печально...

[marcellominasi]

Una esecuzione assolutamente impeccabile, grandi professionisti.

[MeinungMann]

Как прекрасно звучит! 🥹
Хочется оказаться на один вечер в Москве с фотографий, чтобы проникнуться атмосферой того времени
