***

Ах, была ты прелестна личиком,
Ясноглазою. Век жесток.
Так лежи, обгорелой спичкою-
Часто чиркали об коробок.

Отдохни, твое время кончилось-
Отгорела ты, отцвела,
Пламя стало бедно, истончилось,
А чего ты еше ждала.

Говорили же: не расходуйся,
Не давайся всем в руки враз,
Но не слушала ты, как водится,
Блеском сыпала серных глаз.

Что, жалеешь? Но слышу тихое:
“Подними еше раз меня,
Жила лихо, и сгину лихо, 
Искрой мечущегося огня.”

Hi everybody,

after some long deliberation, I decided to start off with this song, as it’s insanely funny to me how “they” (“they” being AI on some platform called Suno, which is frankly is too advanced for yours truly) sing my simple lyrics with such erm..gusto.

I’m not a person to sneeze at anything funny right now, so.

I’ve no idea whose voice they “stole”, and how they decided, in 30 seconds, this poem is to be a romance(I guess). It’s one of the first songs I tried to create, and in this one, I decided to change nothing. Was too busy laughing.

For the initial post, you can go here:

Let me know whether it’s funny, or not, or anything else for you; I’ve several more songs, in English and in Russian.

They all are different, are done in different genres, and sung in different voices. The only thing in common they share: no voice is ever mine .

If you ever heard mine, you’d undestand how deeply I care about you.

The website Suno is prone to make mistakes with Russian(as you can see, or rather, hear), and is completely unfit for Hebrew.

The hardest are the covers/translations, I have a couple of these kinda-ready as well.

It’s my first audio post; please do tell whether this format works, because one can of course insert audio differently.

Why I succumbed to this website charms? Oh well, I do often write what I’d like to sing, but sing, I can not. And nobody is, you know, forming a line “oh April, let me just pick my guitar/open piano forte/call the choir, I So want to sing it, pretty please”

This poem though was written just as a poem. And not a very merry one at that.

The merrier is the experiment.

Really hard to write in this format, so I’ll be short: be safe and, well, just be.

love, Chen-Shmen
