Неспящих солнце, грустная звезда
Language: Russian (Русский) after the English
Our translations: ENG FRE
Неспящих солнце, грустная звезда,
как слезно луч мерцает твой всегда,
как темнота при нём ещё темней,
как он похож на радость прежних дней!
Так светит прошлое нам в жизненной ночи,
но уж не греют нас бессильные лучи,
звезда минувшего, ты в горе мне видна,
видна, но далека, светла, но холодна.

Soleil de ceux qui ne dorment pas, astre mélancolique
Language: French (Français) after the Russian (Русский)
Soleil de ceux qui ne dorment pas, astre mélancolique,
Comme tes rayons tremblent toujours pleins de larmes,
Comme l'obscurité est plus sombre auprès d'eux,
Comme tu es semblable au souvenir des vieux jours !
Ainsi brille devant nous le passé dans la nuit de la vie
Mais ses rayons impuissants ne nous réchauffent pas,
Astre du passé, je peux te voir dans ma douleur,
Visible, mais lointain, brillant, mais froid.
