Cinq Mélodies , opus 9

by Nikolai Nikolayevich Amani (1872 - 1904)

1. Помнишь? [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Russian (Русский)

Помнишь? — с алыми краями
Тучки в озере играли;
Шапки на ухо, верхами
Ребятишки в лес скакали.
Табуном своим покинут,
Конь в воде остановился
И, как будто опрокинут,
Недвижим в ней отразился.
При заре румяный колос
Сквозь дремоту улыбался;
Лес синел. Кукушки голос
В сонной чаще раздавался.
По поляне перед нами,
Что ни шаг, цветы пестрели,
Тень бродила за кустами,
Краски вечера бледнели…
Трепет сердца, упоенье, —
Вам в слова не воплотиться!
Помнишь?.. Чудные мгновенья!
Суждено ль им повториться?

3. Не ветер, вея с высоты [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Russian (Русский)

Не ветер, вея с высоты,
Листов коснулся ночью лунной.
Моей души коснулась ты.
Она тревожна, как листы,
Она, как гусли, многострунна.

Житейский вихрь её терзал
И сокрушительным набегом,
Свистя и воя, струны рвал
И заносил холодным снегом.

Твоя же речь ласкает слух,
Твоё легко прикосновенье,
Как от цветов летящий пух,
Как майской ночи дуновенье.

4. Ах, люби меня [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Russian (Русский)

Ах, люби меня без [размышлений]¹,
Без тоски, без думы роковой,
Без упреков, без пустых сомнений!
Что тут думать? Я твоя, ты мой!

Всё [позабудь]², всё брось, мне весь отдайся!...
На меня так грустно не гляди!
Разгадать, что в сердце -- не пытайся!
[Весь]³ ему отдайся – и [иди]⁴!

Я любви не числю и не мерю;
Нет, любовь есть вся моя душа.
Я люблю – смеюсь, клянусь и верю...
Ах, как жизнь, мой милый, хороша!...

Верь в любви, что счастью не умчаться,
Верь, как я, о гордый человек,
Что нам ввек с тобой не расставаться
И не кончить поцелуя ввек...
