by Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)
Translation by Fyodor Bogdanovich Miller (1818 - 1881)

Полно, зачем ты, слеза одинокая
 (Sung text for setting by P. Bulakhov)
 Matches base text
Language: Russian (Русский)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Полно, зачем ты, слеза одинокая,
Взоры туманишь мои? 
Знай, уж изгладило время далекое
Раны последней любви.
Знать, оттого-то
И грусть безотрадная
Душу порою томит.

Время изгладило, сердце тревожное
Скрыло их в недрах своих.
Сердце их скрыло, но память досадная
Их как святыню хранит.
Знать, оттого-то 
и грусть безотрадная
Душу порою томит.
