Меня холодным люди называют
Language: Russian (Русский)  after the Polish (Polski) 
Our translations:  FRE
Меня холодным люди называют,
И я таю пред ними чувств тревогу,
И равнодушным видом,
Как будто мглою,
Скрываю пламень душевных волнений.
И только ночью тихо к тебе на лоно
Я изливаю в слезах бурю сердтса.

Ils disent que je suis froid
Language: French (Français)  after the Russian (Русский) 
Ils disent que je suis froid,
Et devant eux je dissimule mes sentiments pleins d'anxiété,
Et derrière mon indifférence,
Comme dans un brouillard,
Je  cache la flamme de mes émotions.
Et seulement la nuit sur ton sein silencieusement
Je déverse en larmes la tempête de mon cœur.
