by Adam Mickiewicz (1798 - 1855)
Translation by Lev Aleksandrovich Mey (1822 - 1862)
Моя баловница
Language: Russian (Русский) after the Polish (Polski)
Моя баловница, отдавшись веселью, Зальется, как птичка, серебряной трелью, Как птичка, начнёт щебетать-лепетать, Так мило начнёт лепетать-щебетать, Что даже дыханьем боюсь я нарушить Гармонию сладкую девственных слов, И целые дни, и всю жизнь я готов Красавицу слушать, и слушать, и слушать! Когда ж живость речи ей глазки зажжёт И щеки сильнее румянить начнёт, Когда при улыбке, сквозь алые губы, Как перлы в кораллах, блеснут её зубы, О, в эти минуты я смело опять Гляжуся ей в очи и жду поцелуя, И более слушать её не хочу я, А всё -- целовать, целовать, целовать!
