by Vladislav Nikolayevich Gorchakov (1822 - c1853)
O molči, milyj drug moj, molči!
Language: Russian (Русский)
O molči, milyj drug moj, molči! Nikomu nikogda ni polslova! Tol'ko mne ty o strasti šepči V tichij čas sred' nočnogo pokrova. Ne pojmet tebja strannyj naš svet, Čistoj strasti tvoej ne ocenit. Ver', ni v kom zdes' učastija net! Daže lučšij naš drug nam izmenit. Ver'! Oni že tebja osmejut, Da oni že tebja i pogubjat! Za ljubov' klevetoj vozdadut, Ved' ne tak, kak my, ljudi zdes' ljubjat. I užasen tot budet urok! S ust isčeznet naveki ulybka. Otkrovennost' ne tol'ko porok, Otkrovennost' bol'šaja ošibka.
