Расстались мы, но твой портрет
Language: Russian (Русский)
Расстались мы, но твой портрет Я на груди своей храню: Как бледный призрак лучших лет, Он душу радует мою. И, новым преданный страстям, Я разлюбить его не мог: Так храм оставленный - всё храм, Кумир поверженный - всё бог!

Le portrait
Language: French (Français) after the Russian (Русский)
L'amour n'est plus, mais ton portrait, C'est sur mon cœur que je le garde ! De mes jours, les meilleurs doux et pâle reflet Mon âme s'éjouit lorsque je le regarde. C'est encor lui que je contemple, Même en brûlant de nouveaux feux, Un temple abandonné n'en est pas moins un temple. Une idole brisée est à jamais un Dieu.
