Если жизнь тебя обманет
Language: Russian (Русский)
Available translation(s): ENG
Если жизнь тебя обманет, Не печалься, не сердись, В день уныния смирись: День веселья верь, настанет. Сердце в будущем живёт; Настоящее уныло; Всё мгновенно, всё пройдёт; Что пройдёт, то будет мило.

Wenn du eines Tags enttäuscht bist
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Russian (Русский)
Wenn du eines Tags enttäuscht bist, Zürne nicht, sei nicht betrübt. Bleib getrost im tiefsten Schmerz. Hellre Tage werden kommen, Was das Heute dir versagt, Wird ein Morgen dir bescheren, Aller Kummer muß vergehn; Wird dein Herz bald nicht mehr quälen.
