Поздние гости отцветшего лета
Language: Russian (Русский)
Поздние гости отцветшего лета, Шепчутся ваши головки понурые, Словно клянёте вы дни без просвета, Словно пугают вас ноченьки хмурые... Розы - вот те отцвели, да хоть жили... Нечего вам помянуть пред кончиною: Звёзды весенние вам не светили, Песней не тешились вы соловьиною...

Automne
Language: French (Français) after the Russian (Русский)
Les fleurs tardives, penchant leur corolle, Tristes regrettent l'été, qui s'envole. Vous maudissez, ô fleurs, les jours pleins d'ombres ; Vous redoutez, ô fleurs, les nuits trop sombres. Roses charmantes, vous êtes flétries, Mais rappelez-vous les aurores fleuries Et du printemps les étoiles brillant aux cieux, Quand s'élevait le chant des rossignols joyeux !
