by Alexei Vasilyevich Timofeyev (1812 - 1883)

Не судите, люди добрые
 (Sung text for setting by A. Dargomyzhsky)
 See original
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Не судите, люди, люди добрые,
Бесталанную головушку;
Не браните меня, молодца,
За тоску мою, кручинушку.

Не понять вам, люди добрые,
Злой тоски моей, кручинушки;
Не любовь сгубила молодца,
Не разлука, не навет людской.

Сердце ноет, ноет день и ночь,
ждёт чего, само не ведая;
Так бы всё в слезах и таяло,
Так бы всё в слезах и вылилось.
