Лови, лови часы любви
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Лови, лови
Часы любви,
Минуту наслажденья!
Минуту наслажденья!
Летит она, любви весна,
Блаженное мгновенье!

Одной весной
Своей красой
Нас роза восхищает,
И соловей
В тиши ночей
Весною напевает.

И жизнь мила,
И жизнь светла,
Как греет сердце младость!
Любить, любить,
Лобзанья пить –
Вот нашей жизни сладость!

Летит стрелой
Наш век младой,
Как дивное виденье.
Могилы сон!
Иль вечен он,
Иль страшен пробужденьем?

Лови, лови
Часы любви,
Пленительную младость!
Летит она,
Так пей до дна
Мгновенной жизни сладость!
