Минула страсть, и пыл её тревожный Уже не мучит сердца моего, Но разлюбить тебя мне невозможно! Всё, что не ты - так суетно, так ложно, Всё, что не ты - бесцветно и мертво. Без повода и права негодуя, Уж не кипит бунтующая кровь, Но с пошлой жизнью слиться не могу я, Моя любовь, о друг, и не ревнуя, Осталась та же прежняя любовь.

La passion est passée et l'ardeur de trouble Ne tourmente plus mon cœur, mais arrêter de t'aimer m'est impossible ! Tout ce qui n'est pas toi est si vain, si mensonger, Tout ce qui n'est pas toi est incolore et mort. Sans raison ou droit, en colère, Mon sang rebelle ne bout plus. Mais avec la vie passée je ne peux plus fusionner, Mon amour, mon amie, sans jalousie, Est resté le même amour qu'avant.
