Если встречусь с тобой
Иль увижу тебя,
Что за трепет, за огонь
Разольётся в груди.

Если взглянешь, душа, --
Я горю и дрожу,
И бесчувствен и нём
Пред тобою стою!

Если молвишь мне что,
Я на речи твои,
На приветы твои,
Что сказать, не сыщу.

А лобзаньям твоим, 
А восторгам живым
На земле, у людей, 
Выраженья им нет!

Дева-радость души,
Это жизнь - мы живём!
Не хочу я другой 
Жизни в жизни моей!
