Colours, perfumes, sounds, quivers, all were vague, indeterminate, transparent, steeped in a felicity amidst which everything seemed to faint away.
Краски, запахи, шумы и трепет – все было здесь смутно, прозрачно, неопределенно, все млело, теряло сознание от счастья.

At first blinding spots of light, then rainbow colours and dark patches, flitted before his eyes. He made haste to dive again, opened his eyes in the water and saw something cloudy-green like a sky on a moonlight night.
Сначала ослепительные искры, потом радуги и темные пятна заходили в его глазах; он поспешил опять нырнуть, открыл в воде глаза и увидел что-то мутно-зеленое, похожее на небо в лунную ночь.

There were two folding chairs at the table (looped and beribboned with the inevitable crepe paper), and the table itself was decked with crepe paper in the school colours.
У столика стояли два складных кресла, увитые лентами из все той же гофрированной бумаги. Столик тоже был накрыт бумагой - школьные цвета.

Time has softened down the colours, but the same stream of light still falls upon the forgotten tomb, of which no trace remains; and, to this day, the stranger is shown in York Cathedral, an old window called the Five Sisters.'
Время смягчило краски, но по-прежнему поток света льется на забытую могилу, от которой не осталось ни следа, и по сей день приезжему показывают в Йоркском соборе старинный витраж, называемый «Пять сестер».

Those words are from Engels, whom bourgeois economists accuse of having painted the condition of the workers in the pre-capitalist period in too bright colours and given too gloomy a description of their condition in the period of capitalism.
Так говорит Энгельс, которого буржуазные экономисты обвиняют в том, что он слишком радужными красками изображал положение рабочих в докапиталистический период и слишком мрачно описал то же положение в период капитализма.
