Моё сердце ‑‑ родник, моя песня ‑‑ волна
Language: Russian (Русский)
Моё сердце -- родник, моя песня -- волна,
Пропадая вдали -- разливается...
Под грозой -- моя песня, как туча, темна,
На заре -- в ней заря отражается.
Если ж вдруг вспыхнут искры нежданной любви
Или на сердце горе накопится --
В лоно песни моей льются слёзы мои,
И волна уносить их торопится.

My heart is like a spring, my song like...
Language: English after the Russian (Русский)
My heart is like a spring, my song like a wave,
disappearing into the distance, overflowing,
In the storm, my song is dark, like a cloud,
At daybreak, it is reflected in the rising sun,
But if suddenly the sparks of unexpected love blaze up,
Or grief piles up in my heart--
Into the womb of my song my tears will pour,
and the wave will hurriedly carry them away.
