by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)
Ne poj, krasavica, pri mne
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ne poj, krasavica, pri mne Ty pesen Gruzii pečal'noj; Napominajut mne one Druguju žizn' i bereg dal'nij. Uvy, napominajut mne Tvoi žestokie napevy I step', i noč', i pri lune Čerty dalekoj, bednoj devy! JA [prizrak]1 milyj, rokovoj, Tebja uvidev, zabyvaju; No ty poëš', i predo mnoj Ego ja vnov' voobražaju. Ne poj, krasavica, pri mne Ty pesen Gruzii pečal'noj; Napominajut mne one Druguju žizn' i bereg dal'nij.
M. Glinka sets stanzas 1-2
