Всё в ней гармония, всё диво
Language: Russian (Русский)
Всё в ней гармония, всё диво,
всё выше мира и страстей,
она покоится стыдливо
к расе торжественной своей;
она кругом себя взирает:
ей нет соперниц, нет подруг;
[Красавиц наших]1 бледный круг
в её сиянье исчезает.
Куда бы ты ни поспешал,
хоть на любовное свиданье,
какое б в сердце ни питал
ты сокровенное мечтанье;
Но, встретясь с ней, смущенный,
ты вдруг остановишься невольно,
благоговея богомольно
перед святыней красоты.

The beauty
Language: English after the Russian (Русский)
Everything in her is harmony, a marvel,
Everything is above the world and passions,
She rests modestly
Within her solemn beauty;
She looks around:
There are no rivals or equals to her,
The usual pale circle of beauties
Disappears in her brilliance.
Wherever you are hurrying,
Even to a love assignation,
Harbouring within your heart
A secret yearning -
Meeting her, you feel perplexed
And stop involuntarily,
Piously revering
The sanctity of beauty.
