Слеза дрожит

(Sung text for setting by P. Tchaikovsky)

Language: Russian (Русский)

Our translations: ENG FRE

Слеза дрожит в твоём ревнивом взоре,
О, не грусти, ты всё мне дорога,
Но я любить могу лишь на просторе,
Мою любовь, широкую как море,
Вместить не могут, нет! вместить не могут жизни берега.

 ... 

Но не грусти, земное минет горе,
Пожди ещё, неволя недолга --
В одну любовь мы все сольёмся вскоре,
В одну любовь, широкую как море,
Что не вместят, нет! что не вместят земные берега.

Une larme tremble dans ton regard jaloux

(Sung text translation for setting by P. Tchaikovsky)

See original

Language: French (Français) after the Russian (Русский)

Une larme tremble dans ton regard jaloux...
Oh, ne sois pas triste ; tu es encore chère à moi !
Mais je ne peux aimer que dans l'espace,
Mon amour, vaste comme la mer,
Ne peut tenir, non ! il ne peut tenir sur les rives de la vie.

 ... 

Oh, ne sois pas triste, mon amie,  les malheurs terrestres
Attends un peu plus, le malheur sera de courte durée.
En un amour bientôt nous tous serons réunis,
En un amour, aussi vaste que la mer,
Qui ne peut tenir, non ! qui ne peut tenir sur les rives de la vie.
