by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)

Когда б не смутное влеченье
 (Sung text for setting by N. Artsybushev)
 See original
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Когда б не смутное влеченье
Чего-то жаждущей души,
Я б здесь остался -- наслажденье
Вкушать в небедомой тиши:
Забыл бы всех желаний трепет
Мечтою б целый мир назвал --
И всё бы слушал этот лепет,
Всё б эти ножки целовал...
