by Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)
Translation by Vsevolod Dmitrevich Kostomarov (1837 - 1865)

Ein schöner Stern geht auf in meiner...
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE
  Ein schöner Stern geht auf in meiner Nacht,
Ein Stern, der süßen Trost herniederlacht
Und neues Leben mir verspricht --
O, lüge nicht!

  Gleichwie das Meer dem Mond entgegenschwillt,
So flutet meine Seele, froh und wild,
Empor zu deinem holden Licht --
O, lüge nicht!

Language: Russian (Русский)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Как две звезды сквозь синий мрак ночей,
Сияет мне краса твоих очей.
Мне много благ сулят они,
Не обмани, не обмани.

Как диск луны скользит в седых волнах,
Твоя душа видна в твоих глазах.
Сияют кротостью они,
Не обмани, не обмани.
