Tajna
Language: Russian (Русский)
Pochti rebyonkom ya by'la, Vse lyubovalis` mnoj; Mne shli i kudri po plecham, I fartuchek czvetnoj. Lyubila mat` smotret`, kak ya Molilas` poutru, Lyubila slushat`, esli ya Pevala vvecheru. Chuzhoj odnazhdy' posetil Nash tixij ugolok; On by'l tak nezhen i umen, Tak stroen i vy'sok. On chasto v ochi mne glyadel I tixo ruku zhal I tajno glaz moj goluboj I kudri celoval. I, pomnyu, stalo mne vokrug Pri nem vsyo tak svetlo, I stalo mutno v golove I na serdce teplo. Leteli dni… promchalsya god… Nastal poslednij chas — Emu shepnula chto-to mat`, I on ostavil nas. I dolgo-dolgo mne prishlos` I plakat`, i grustit`, No ya boyalasya o nem Kogo-nibud` sprosit`. Odnazhdy' vizhu: mily'j gost`, Pripav k ustam moim, Mne govorit: «Ne bojsya, drug, YA dlya drugix nezrim». I s e`tix por — on snova moj, V ob``yatiyax moix, I strastno, krepko on menya Czeluet pri drugix. Vse govoryat, chto yarkij svet Lanit moix — bol`noj. Im ne uznat`, kak zharko ix Czeluet mily'j moj!
