by Mikhail Yur'yevich Lermontov (1814 - 1841)

Нет, не тебя так пылко я люблю
 (Sung text for setting by N. Myaskovsky)
 Matches original text
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Нет, не тебя так пылко я люблю,
Не для меня красы твоей блистанье;
Люблю в тебе я прошлое страданье
И молодость погибшую мою.

Когда порой я на тебя смотрю,
В твои глаза вникая долгим взором,
Таинственным я занят разговором,
Но не с тобой я сердцем говорю.

Я говорю с подругой юных дней,
В твоих чертах ищу черты другие,
В устах живых уста давно немые,
В глазах огонь угаснувших очей.
