It's not evening.

‎[Intro – instrumental: ambient synth pad, distant thunder, slow pulsing bass drum, 8 bars] ‎ ‎[Verse 1] ‎Oh, it’s not evening, it’s not evening, ‎I barely managed to sleep a bit, ‎I barely managed to sleep a bit, ‎Oh, and in my dream, something appeared. ‎[Strings: low, mournful ostinato; synth: deep ambient pad with slow LFO pulse; faint distant distorted guitar texture underneath like wind; vocals: deep, melancholic, double-tracked] ‎ ‎[Verse 2] ‎In my dream, I saw it clearly, ‎As if my black steed, bold and free, ‎Began to prance and dance so wildly, ‎Oh, how he reared and cavorted beneath me. ‎[Piano: sparse, cold minor notes; choir: wordless low vowels in the background; guitars: muted, chugging rhythm with heavy reverb; vocal: clean on first two lines, growl on “cavorted” with layered distortion] ‎ ‎[Chorus] ‎Oj tó ne vécher, oj tó ne vécher, ‎Mne málym-málo spalóss’, ‎Mne málym-málo spalóss’, ‎Oj, da vo sné prividélos’. ‎[Drop: all instruments pull back for 2 bars; only a single high synth note with 5‑second reverb tail; then a cinematic swell of strings and choir; guitars return as thick textural wall (not melodic); clean vocal on first line, growl layered underneath on second] ‎ ‎[Verse 3] ‎Then cruel winds came, fierce and biting, ‎From the east, where shadows dwell, ‎And tore away the dark cap flying ‎From my wild and restless head as well. ‎[Synth: rising arpeggio in minor key; strings: ascending crescendo; guitars: tremolo-picked drones with chorus and reverb (more atmosphere than aggression); vocal: harmonized clean lines with subtle echo delay] ‎ ‎[Verse 4] ‎But the esaul was sharp and knowing, ‎He could read the dream’s dark sign: ‎“Oh,” he said, “your head, so boldly going, ‎Will be lost — the fate’s unkind.” ‎[Percussion: metallic hits and sub‑heavy kicks with sidechain compression; synth: low pulsating bass layer; vocal: whisper on “dark sign” with reversed reverb, then sudden growl on “Will be lost” with layered choir behind] ‎ ‎[Outro] ‎Oj tó ne vécher, oj tó ne vécher, ‎Mne málym-málo spalóss’, ‎Mne málym-málo spalóss’, ‎Oj, da vo sné prividélos’. ‎[Build: ascending synth arpeggios and rising string glissandos; guitars: slow power chords with wide stereo delay; drums: accelerate to double‑time with metallic cymbal swells; final drop with massive reverb, choir fade, and one long sustained synth note decaying for 10 seconds]
