Увял цветок
 (Sung text for setting by S. Rachmaninov)
 Matches base text
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Увял цветок! Лазурным утром мая
Нашла гроза, сломился стебелёк…
И, словно слёзы, лепестки роняя,
    Увял цветок!

Тебя любил он с неземною силой, --
Как только жрец любить богиню мог, --
Но ты взята безжалостной могилой…
    Увял цветок!

Чужой мечтам, чужой желаньям ясным,
Твой бедный друг душою изнемог.
Возврата нет к угасшим дням прекрасным…
    Увял цветок!
