Mir träumte von einem schönen Kind
Language: German (Deutsch)
Mir träumte von einem schönen Kind, Sie trug das Haar in Flechten; Wir saßen unter der grünen Lind, In blauen Sommernächten. Wir hatten uns lieb und küßten uns gern, Und kosten von Freuden und Leiden. Es seufzten am Himmel die gelben Stern, Sie schienen uns zu beneiden. Ich bin erwacht und schau mich um, Ich steh allein im Dunkeln. Am Himmel droben, gleichgültig und stumm, Seh ich die Sterne funkeln.

Снилась мне девушка: кудри как шёлк
Language: Russian (Русский) after the German (Deutsch)
Снилась мне девушка: кудри как шёлк, Кроткие, ясные очи... С нею под липой просиживал я Синие летние ночи. Слово любви прерывала порой Сладкая речь поцелуя... Звёзды вздыхали средь тёмных небес, Словно ревниво тоскуя. Я пробудился... со мной никого... Страшно мне в сумраке ночи; Холодно, немо глядят на меня Тусклые звездные очи.
