Русалка плыла по реке голубой, Озаряема полной луной; И старалась она доплеснуть до луны Серебристую пену волны. И шумя и крутясь, колебала река Отраженные в ней облака; И пела русалка - и звук её слов Долетал до крутых берегов. И пела русалка: ,,На дне у меня Играет мерцание дня; Там рыбок златые гуляют стада; Там хрустальные есть города; И там на подушке из ярких песков Под тенью густых тростников Спит витязь, добыча ревнивой волны, Спит витязь чужой стороны. Расчесывать кольца шелковых кудрей Мы любим во мраке ночей, И в чело и в уста мы в полуденный час Целовали красавца не раз. Но к страстным лобзаньям, не зная зачем, Остаётся он хладен и нём; Он спит - и, склонившись на перси ко мне, Он не дышит, не шепчет во сне!`` Так пела русалка над синей рекой, Полна непонятной тоской; И, шумно катясь, колебала река Отраженные в ней облака.

美人鱼漂浮在蓝色河面上， 被一轮圆圆的月照亮； 且她试图将带银色泡沫之波 飞溅到月球上面许多。 嘈杂而且旋转，河流摇晃不停 天上的云倒映在其中； 美人鱼在唱歌——和她的言谈 飞到了那陡峭的河岸。 且美人鱼唱道：“在我的下面 太阳光不停的耀闪； 成群的金鱼在不停地游动； 还有不少的水晶城； 他的头枕着这明亮的沙滩 茂密的芦苇荫下面 骑士沉睡，嫉妒浪潮的猎物， 远方的骑士已睡熟。 梳理着他那丝绸般的卷发 我们爱在黑夜无涯 额与唇，我们就在中午时刻 不止一次亲吻帅哥。 但是对于热吻，不知为何情， 他总是仍然保持冰冷； 睡去——而且，依偎在我的怀里， 不会呼吸，也不会梦呓！“ 于是美人鱼在蓝色河流上歌唱， 充满了无法理解的渴望； 河水在喧哗之中翻滚不停 天上的云朵倒映在其中。
