Что ты клонишь над водами, Ива, макушку свою? И дрожащими листами, Словно жадными устами, Ловишь беглую струю? Хоть томится, хоть трепещет Каждый лист твой над струей... Но струя бежит и плещет, И, на солнце нежась, блещет, И смеётся над тобой...

Pourquoi te penches-tu vers l'eau, Saule, ta cime ? Et avec tes feuilles tremblantes, Comme une bouche gourmande, Tu voudrais attraper le flot qui court ? Bien que faible, et tremblante Chaque feuille sur le flot... Mais la rivière court et saute Et, se dore au soleil, brille, Et se moque de toi...
