Тимур Исмагилов. "Йәшен" (по стихотворению Рашита Назарова)

Запись с концерта в Москве 10 апреля 2025 года. Камера – Фëдор Ермошин и Павел Скоробогатов, монтаж – Фëдор Ермошин. В 2011 году я написал пьесу по гениальному стихотворению башкирского поэта Рашита Назарова. 18-летний поэт использовал в качестве единственной рифмы многозначное слово "йәшен". Стихотворение состоит из шести строчек, в конце каждой звучит это слово, но пять раз из шести оно несёт новый смысл (последняя строчка повторяет первую). Приведу перевод Айдара Хусаинова: Любовь – так это молния, скажи, Не спрашивая возраста души, И старика, и молодого оглушит, Боишься – спрячься где-нибудь в глуши. Но слез не лей и счастья не ищи, Любовь – так это молния, скажи. Timur Ismagilov - "Йәшен" (after a poem by Rashit Nazarov) Performed by the composer in Moscow on April 10, 2025. Filmed by Fyodor Ermoshin and Pavel Skorobogatov, edited by Fyodor Ermoshin. «In 2011, I wrote the piano piece "Йәшен" based on a brilliant poem by Rashit Nazarov (1944–2006). The eighteen-year-old poet used the polysemantic Bashkir word "йәшен" as the only rhyme. The poem consists of six lines, each line ends with that word, but it carries a different meaning every time (except the last line, which is a repeat of the first one). It's not difficult to guess that it is almost impossible to translate this poem from Bashkir adequately. However, I'll try to convey at least the general meaning. Love – you would say, it is like a bolt of lightning. It cares not, does not ask for anyone's age, Engulfs both old and young in an unquenchable flame. Should you be afraid of getting burned – run, you! hide! But see that your eyes do not shed tears after! Love – you would say, it is like a bolt of lightning. I have known this poem by heart since my youth and I had long intended to set it to music. But the text itself is so strong that I didn't want to embody it in vocal form. As a result, I opted for recitation with music.» (from the interview for the channel Moving Classics TV, 2022)
