Czy'ganskaya pesnya
Language: Russian (Русский)
«Ya vnov` pred toboyu
stoyu ocharovan...»
O, poj, moya milaya, poj, ne smolkaya,
Lyubimuyu pesnyu moyu
O tom, kak, trevozhno toj pesne vnimaya,
YA vnov` pred toboyu stoyu!
Ta pesnya napomnit mne vremya by'loe,
Kotory'm dusha tak polna,
I strax, chto shhemit moe serdce bol`noe,
By't` mozhet, rasseet ona.
Boyus` ya, chto golos moj, skorbny'j i nezhny'j,
Tebya svoej strast`yu smutit,
Boyus`, chto ot zhizni moej beznadezhnoj
Uly'bka tvoya otletit.
Mne zhizn` bez tebya slovno polnoch` gluxaya
V chuzhom i bezvestnom krayu...
O, poj, moya milaya, poj, ne smolkaya,
Lyubimuyu pesnyu moyu!
