by Aleksei Nikolayevich Apukhtin (1841 - 1893)

O, skazhi ej, chtob strast` rokovuyu moyu
Language: Russian (Русский) 
O, skazhi ej, chtob strast` rokovuyu moyu 
  Pozaby'la, prostila ona, 
Chto dlya nej ya zhivu, i dy'shu, i poyu, 
  Chto vsya zhizn` moya ej otdana!

Chto unyat` ne mogu ya myatezhnuyu krov`, 
  Chto nad e`toyu strast`yu bol`noj 
Zasiyala inaya, - svyataya lyubov`, 
  Tak, kak nebo blestit nad zemlej! 

O, sxodite ko mne, vdoxnoven`ya luchi, 
  Zazhigajtesya yarche, teplej, 
Zadushevnaya pesnya, skorej prozvuchi, 
  Prozvuchi dlya neyo i o nej.
