by Nikolai Alekseyevich Nekrasov (1821 - 1877)

Где твоё личико смуглое
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Где твоё личико смуглое
Нынче смеётся, кому?
Эх, одиночество круглое!
Не посулю никому!

А ведь, бывало, охотно
Шла ты ко мне вечерком;
Как мы с тобой беззаботно
Веселы были вдвоем!

Как выражала ты живо
Милые чувства свои!
Помнишь, тебе особливо
Нравились зубы мои;

Как любовалась ты ими,
Как цаловала любя!
Но и зубами моими
Не удержал я тебя…
