by Modest Petrovich Musorgsky (1839 - 1881)

Pesn' balearca
Language: Russian (Русский) 
V ob"jatjakh devy molodoj, ljubzan'em zhguchim raspalennyj,
Dykhan'ja zharkogo strujej v roskoshnoj nege upojennyj,
Pod shopot sladostnykh rechej ja zabyvaju zvuk mechej.
V ob"jatjakh devy nezhnoj ja zasypaju bezmjatezhno.
Zabudu-l' obraz devy miloj, zabudu-l' blesk jejo ochej,
I shopot sladostnykh rechej sred' zvukov pirshestva igrivykh?
V ob"jatjakh devy nezhnoj ja zasypaju bezmjatezhno
I v sladkom sne, ljubov'ju upojennyj, poju ljubov',
I devy chudnuju krasu i devu chudnuju moju!
Pod shopot sladostnykh rechej, ja zabyvaju zvuk mechej!
