by Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)
Translation by Mikhail Larionovich Mikhailov (1829 - 1865)

Die blauen Frühlingsaugen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT ENG FRE ITA
  Die blauen Frühlingsaugen
Schau'n aus dem Gras [hervor]1;
Das sind die [lieben]2 Veilchen,
Die ich zum Strauß erkor.

  Ich pflücke sie und denke,
Und die Gedanken all,
Die mir im Herzen seufzen,
Singt laut die Nachtigall.

  [Ja,]3 was ich denke, singt sie
[Lautschmetternd]4, daß es schallt;
Mein zärtliches Geheimnis
Weiß schon der ganze Wald.

Глазки весны голубые
 (Sung text for setting by P. Tchaikovsky)
 See original
Language: Russian (Русский)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Глазки весны голубые
Кротко глядят из травы.
Любы вы милой, фиалки,
С полем расстанетесь вы.

Рву я цветы и мечтаю...
В роще поют соловьи...
Боже мой, кто рассказал им
И думы, и грёзы мои?

Громко они raspevajut
Всё, что na сердце таю...
Целая роща узнала
Нежную тайну мою.
