Приближается звук
 (Sung text for setting by V. Veselov)
 Matches original text
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Приближается звук. И, покорна щемящему звуку,
Молодеет душа. 
И во сне прижимаю к губам твою прежнюю руку,
Не дыша. 

Снится - снова я мальчик, и снова любовник,
И овраг, и бурьян. 
И в бурьяне - колючий шиповник,
И вечерний туман. 

Сквозь цветы, и листы, и колючие ветки, я знаю,
Старый дом глянет в сердце моё,
Глянет небо опять, розовея от краю до краю,
И окошко твоё. 

Этот голос - он твой, и его непонятному звуку
Жизнь и горе отдам,
Хоть во сне, твою прежнюю милую руку
Прижимая к губам.
