The content of "Moscow: The Season of Fallen Leaves" has many similarities with the famous poem by poet and playwright Vladimir Kirshon. And "I asked the ash tree" is also the theme song of the film.

Moscow: Falling Leaves is a TV series set in Russia directed by Trong Trinh. The series aired during the Lunar New Year 2017 and received positive feedback from TV audiences for its famous cast, beautiful scenes, and romantic story.

The film uses two Russian songs: I asked the ash tree performed by the "violin prince" Alexander Rybak and Crane's crying sung by the "dolphin prince" Vitas. In which, I asked the ash tree is the theme song, and the story of the song is also similar to the content of the film.

The story of a lovesick boy looking for his lover

Before being set to music, I Ask the Ash Tree was already a famous poem by Vladimir Kirshon. During his lifetime, Vladimir Kirshon was known as a writer and playwright, but in the end, his most famous and beloved work was a poem about a lovesick young man looking for his lover.

Phim Tết Mátxcơva: Mùa thay lá sử dụng Tôi hỏi cây tần bì làm ca khúc nhạc phim
The New Year movie Moscow: Falling Leaves used I Ask the Ash Tree as its soundtrack.

The young man walked in the middle of an autumn evening with the rain outside the window, a crescent moon, and clouds above. All around him were the most beautiful things of Russia with rows of birch trees and ash trees changing leaves. But the wanderer was still lonely in a self-confessed feeling:

“I asked the ash tree/Where my beloved is/The ash tree did not speak/Just shook its head/I asked the birch tree/Where my beloved is/The birch tree held its breath/Shedding its yellow leaves on me/I asked: Autumn/Do you see my beloved?/Autumn answered me/A cold rain…”

The scenery is beautiful and also inanimate, but in the young man's heart, the ash tree swaying in the wind becomes "shaking its head", the birch trees with falling leaves in autumn also become "shedding yellow leaves on me". "When people are sad, the scenery is never happy", nature seems to sympathize with the loneliness of the lyrical character.

The wanderer wandered everywhere looking for the answer to the question “Where is my lover?” But all was in vain until the guy received a response from his best friend:

"My only friend/ My best friend in the world/ Tell me/ Where is the one I love?/ My only friend/ My best friend replied/ Your ex-lover/ Your ex-lover/ Is now my wife".

I asked the ash tree is a sad poem, leaving a feeling of sorrow in the reader's heart. The young man let go of the most precious thing in his hands. Ironically, that precious thing was owned by his best friend in the world, also his only friend.

The boy did not know what else to do when happiness was decided. He continued his journey as a traveler: “I asked the ash tree/I asked the autumn/I asked the birch tree…”

Having the answer, the lyrical character still asks. And perhaps, the young man doesn't know what else to do, other than asking questions to nature and all things.

The poem was set to music twice.

I Ask the Ash Tree was first set to music in 1935 in Kirshon's comedy titled Birthday. The composer was Tikhon Khrennikov, who later became Chairman of the Union of Soviet Composers.

After the period when Kirshon's plays were banned and then revived, Khrennikov himself could no longer remember the notes of the song. But director Eldar Ryazanov, a talented poet, remembered the song very well.
