Четыре романса , opus 5

by Mikhail Mikhailovich Ippolitov-Ivanov (1859 - 1935)

1. Дитя моё, останься здесь  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Russian (Русский) 
Дитя моё, 
  Останься здесь со мной:
В воде привольное житьё 
  И холод, и покой.

Я созову [моих]1 сестёр, 
  Мы пляской круговой
Развеселим [туманный]2 взор
  И дух усталый твой!

Усни, постель твоя мягка, 
  Прозрачен твой покров.
[Пройдут года, пройдут века]3
  Под говор чудных снов.

О милый мой! не утаю, 
  Что я тебя люблю, 
Люблю как вольную струю, 
  Люблю как жизнь мою...

3. О, если б ты могла  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Russian (Русский) 
О если б ты могла хоть на единый миг
Забыть свою печаль, забыть свои невзгоды, 
О, если бы хоть раз я твой увидел лик,
Каким я знал его в счастливейшие годы!

Когда в [твоих глазах]1 засветится слеза,
О, если б эта грусть могла пройти порывом,
Как в теплую весну пролётная гроза,
Как тень от облаков, бегущая по нивам!
