Не отходи от меня, Друг мой, останься со мной! Не отходи от меня: Мне так отрадно с тобой! Ближе друг к другу, чем мы, Ближе нельзя нам и быть; Чище, живее, сильней Мы не умеем любить. Если же ты предо мной Грустно головку склоня, Мне так отрадно с тобой... Не отходи от меня!

Ne me quitte pas, Mon ami, reste avec moi ! Ne me quitte pas : Je suis tellement heureuse d'être avec toi ! Plus près de l'autre que nous, Plus près de nous, ce ne peut être ; Plus pur, plus vivant, plus fort, Nous saurions comment aimer. Si tu es en face de moi, Ta tête est baissée de tristesse, Je suis tellement heureuse d'être avec toi ! Ne me quitte pas !
