by Vladislav Nikolayevich Gorchakov (1822 - c1853)
O molchi, mily'j drug moj, molchi!
Language: Russian (Русский)
O molchi, mily'j drug moj, molchi! Nikomu nikogda ni polslova! Tol`ko mne ty' o strasti shepchi V tixij chas sred` nochnogo pokrova. Ne pojmet tebya stranny'j nash svet, Chistoj strasti tvoej ne ocenit. Ver`, ni v kom zdes` uchastiya net! Dazhe luchshij nash drug nam izmenit. Ver`! Oni zhe tebya osmeyut, Da oni zhe tebya i pogubyat! Za lyubov` klevetoj vozdadut, Ved` ne tak, kak my', lyudi zdes` lyubyat. I uzhasen tot budet urok! S ust ischeznet naveki uly'bka. Otkrovennost` ne tol`ko porok, Otkrovennost` bol`shaya oshibka.
