by Apollon Nikolayevich Maykov (1821 - 1897)

Vesjolyj chas
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Nynche vesjol ja, piruju!
Pazh moj, imenem ljubvi
Na besedu krugovuju
Vsekh druzej moikh zovi!

Milyj angel, sjad' so mnoju,
Lej mne zvezdnoje vino,
Rovno, tikho pust' strujeju
Ustanovitsja ono.

Posmotris' v prozrachnom kubke,
Kak blestjat volshebno v njom,
Zvezdy-ochi, rozy-gubki,
Kosy s mirtovym venkom.

Bylo vremja, `etot kubok
Ozhivlen byval poroj
Otrazhen'em alykh gubok
Roz krasavicy inoj.

Smushchennye jejo dykhan'em,
V njom strui jego lilis',
No moim vospominan'em,
Milyj drug, ne oskorbis'!
