Опять встрепенулось ты, сердце, и снова

Language: Russian (Русский)

Available translation(s): ENG

Опять встрепенулось ты, сердце, и снова
В душе моей вспыхнули грёзы,
И рвётся из груди кипучее слово,
И льются горячие слёзы…

И снятся опять ей всё звуки да звуки,
Всё, музыки полные, речи,
Да чёрные очи, да белые руки,
Да кудри, да белые плечи.

И снова душа отозваться готова
На всё, в чём есть тернья и розы.
И рвётся из груди кипучее слово,
И льются горячие слёзы.

Language: English after the Russian (Русский)

Again you beat faster, my heart, and once again
daydreams break out in my soul,
And a passionate word is torn from my chest 
And hot tears flow...

And my soul dreams again of sounds, all those sounds -
your words all full of music;
and your black eyes, and your white hands,
and your curls, and your white shoulders.

And once again my soul is ready to respond
To everything that has thorns and roses;
And a passionate word is torn from my chest
And hot tears flow...
