Dva soneta Shekspira

Song Cycle by Aleksandr Ivanovich Pirumov

?.   [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Russian (Русский) 
Кто под звездой счастливою рожден -
Гордится славой, титулом и властью.
А я судьбой скромнее награжден,
И для меня любовь - источник счастья.
Под солнцем пышно листья распростёр
Наперсник принца, ставленник вельможи.
Но гаснет солнца благосклонный взор,
И золотой подсолнух гаснет тоже.
Военачальник, баловень побед,
В бою последнем терпит пораженье,
И всех его заслуг потерян след.
Его удел - опала и забвенье.
Но нет угрозы титулам моим
Пожизненным: любил, люблю, любим.
