Сновидение
 (Sung text for setting by A. Glazunov)
 Matches original text
Language: Russian (Русский)  after the French (Français) 
Недавно, обольщён прелестным сновиденьем,
В венце сияющем, царем я зрел себя;
  Мечталось, я любил тебя --
  И сердце билось наслажденьем.
Я страсть у ног твоих в восторгах изъяснял.
Мечты! ах! отчего вы счастья не продлили?
  Но боги не всего теперь меня лишили:
  Я только -- царство потерял.
