PARIS -- Russian poet and singer Bulat Okudzhava,
whose dissident lyrics once filled stadiums with
fans, has died in a French military hospital at the
age of 73, a French armed forces spokeswoman said
on Friday

"I can confirm that Mr. Okudzhava died overnight at
Percy military hospital in Clamart (suburb)," the
spokeswoman said.

The cause of death was not immediately disclosed.
French military hospitals are open to the general
public and receive civilian patients who live
nearby.

Okudzhava was especially influential in the 1960s
and 1970s, but his simple melodies and moving
lyrics, accompanied typically by the strumming of
an acoustic guitar, attracted generations of fans.

Love, war and everyday life were all the focus of
Okudzhava's lyrics.

In one of his songs about Moscow's most famous
streets, he sang: "Ah Arbat, my Arbat, you are my
melody, you are my Fatherland, you are my joy and
sorrow."

Half Georgian and half Armenian, Okudzhava was long
out of favor with communist authorities, but won
the approval of reform- minded authorities in the
late 1980s.

In December 1994 he won the 10,000 pound ($15,000)
Russian Booker literary prize, but did not attend
the award ceremony because of poor health. He was
also named a member of President Boris Yeltsin's
council on culture and art.

In recent years he developed heart problems and
kept a low public profile. He had heart surgery in
the United States several years ago, and in August
last year he suffered a heart attack.

Tass quoted his wife Olga as saying he died "from
the psychological stress of loneliness." (Reuters)
