Zdes Khorosho-by Sergei Rachmaninov is a song of praise for the beauty of the nature. The "speaker" relishes the beauty of nature and intimate unity with God!
Here is the translation
"How peaceful it is here. Look! Far away the river blazes like fire. The meadows are carpets of color. The clouds are radiant white. There's no one here. Silence reigns. I am alone with the Lord, the flowers, the old pine tree. And you, my dream of delight"
