Первое свидание

Вот миновала разлука унылая,
пробил свидания час,
светлое, полное счастие, милая,
вновь наступило для нас.

Долго томилося, полно страдания, 
сердце твоё, но поверь:
дни одиночества, дни испытания
мы наверстаем теперь.

Нежные речи, любви выражения
вновь потекут без конца,
и во единое снова биение
наши сольются сердца!

Пусть сочетает созвучье единое
наши две души, и вновь,
словно весенняя песнь соловьиная,
наша воспрянет любовь!

Première rencontre

Notre triste séparation est terminée,
L'heure de la rencontre est là.
Le bonheur brillant, ma chérie,
Est de nouveau venu pour nous.

Longtemps a langui, plein de souffrance,
Ton cœur, mais crois-moi :
Les jours de solitude, les jours d'épreuves,
Maintenant nous allons les rattraper.

Tendres conversations, expressions d'amour
Seront maintenant sans fin,
Et nos cœurs battront d'un seul battement,
Nos cœurs fusionneront !

Qu'un accord unique associe
Nos deux âmes, à nouveau,
Comme un chant de rossignol au printemps,
Notre amour s'élèvera !
