by Nikolay Grigorevich Tsyganov (1797 - 1832)

Smolkni, ptaška‑kanarejka
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Smolkni, ptaška-kanarejka!
Polno zvonko raspevat',
Perestan' ty mne, zlodejka,
Retivoe nadryvat'!

Už ko mne ne vorotit'sja
Krasnym dnjam vesny moej!..
Otvykaet serdce bit'sja,
Vspominajuči o nej!

Radost'-mladost' minovalas',
Otcvela ona cvetkom,
I ne vichorem promčalas',
Proporchnula motyl'kom!..

S neju pamjat' o byvalom
JA chotel pochoronit',
Ne grustit' o nem nimalo,
Ni slezy ne uronit'!

Vse davno zabyto bylo;
Zvonkoj pesenkoj svoej
Vse ty snova razbudila,
Ptaška, ljutyj moj zlodej!

Posle vedryška k nenast'ju
Tjaželen'ko privykat',
A nesčastnomu ob sčast'e
Chuže smerti vspominat'!...
