The Poems Devoted to the 50th Anniversary of the Ensemble
Our small ensemble
is like a small ship
Akinfiev is his permanent captain
Seven music signs decorate cordages
He slips like on the waves in the sea of music
Half hundred years is not a small period
But obeying experienced hand
He successfully avoids reefs and rocks
Because there is discipline on the ship
And though his crew is not very big
Guitar, domra, bass and of course bayan
But music is the joy for all of them
Because God gave talent to all of them
The crew has worked for half a century allready
And waits the cabin boys to join to it
Svetlana Kozlovskaya prepares them to it
And they say that it is not long to wait allready
The arrival of the cabin boys will open
The second breath to the crew.It is much easier
To go the hundredth anniversary
With the support of young talents.
