Падают капли печальные
Language: Russian (Русский)
Available translation(s): ENG FRE
Падают, падают капли печальные,
тяжко по крыше стучат.
Ветер напевы поёт погребальные,
ветви так грустно шумят.
Падают, падают грёзы смущённые
на душу мертвым дождём...
Слёзы холодные, муки бессонные,
сколько вас в сердце моём!

Raindrops sadly fall
Language: English  after the Russian (Русский)
Fall, fall, sad raindrops,
with a hard knocking on the roof.
The wind sings a funeral song,
the branches rustle so sadly.
Fall, fall, confused dreams
on my soul like a dead rain…
Cold tears, sleepless agonies,
so many of you weigh on my heart.
