by Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)
Translation by Aleksey Nikolayevich Pleshcheyev (1825 - 1893)

Das Glück, das gestern mich geküßt
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Das Glück, das gestern mich geküßt,
Ist heute schon zerronnen,
Und treue Liebe hab ich nie
Auf lange Zeit gewonnen.

Die Neugier hat wohl manches Weib
In meinen Arm gezogen;
Hat sie mir mal ins Herz geschaut,
Ist sie davongeflogen.

Die eine lachte, eh sie ging,
Die andre tät erblassen;
Nur Kitty weinte bitterlich,
Bevor sie mich verlassen.

Вчера меня ласкало счастье
 (Sung text for setting by C. Cui)
 See original
Language: Russian (Русский)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Вчера меня ласкало счастье,
А уж сегодня нет его!
Мне привязать к себе не удавалось
Надолго сердцем никого.

В мои объятья любопытство
Толкало женщин много раз,
Но, заглянув мне в сердце глубже,
Спешили прочь они сейчас.

Одна в молчанье уходила,
Другая - весело смеясь.
И только ты, меня бросая,
Слезами горько залилась!
