Ljubil ja ochi golubye
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ljubil ja ochi golubye, Teper' vljubilsja v chjornye, Te byli milye takije, A `eti nepokornye. Gljadet', byvalo, ne ustanut Te dolgo, vyrazitel'no, A `eti ne gljadjat, a vzgljanut Tak - slovno car' vlastitel'nyj. Na tekh poroj sverkali sljozy, Ljubvi nemye zhaloby, A tut ne sljozy, a ugrozy, A to i sljoz ne stalo by. Te ukroshchali zhizni volny, Svetili mirnym schastijem, A `eti burnykh molnij polny I dyshat samovlastijem. No uvlekatel'no, kak mladost', Ikh junoje mogushchestvo, O! ja b za nikh dal slavu, radost' I vsjo dushi imushchestvo. Ljubil ja ochi golubye, Teper' vljubilsja v chjornye, Khot' `eti serdcu ne rodnye, Khot' `eti nepokornye.
