by Konstantin Dmitrevich Bal'mont (1867 - 1942)

Ja bojus', chto ljubov'ju kipuchej
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ja bojus', chto ljubov'ju kipuchej
‎Ja, byt' mozhet, tebja oskorbil.
Milyj drug, `eto chuvstvo nakhlynulo tuchej,
Ja borot'sja ne mog, ja tebja poljubil.
‎O, prosti! Tochno skazkoj pevuchej,
‎Tochno snom zacharovan ja byl.

‎Ja ujdu, i umrut ukorizny,
‎I ty budesh' odna, kholodna.
Tol'ko skorbnoj mol'boj zamolkajushchej trizny
Donesjotsja k tebe pesnopenij volna.
‎Tochno pesni zabytoj otchizny,
‎Tochno vzdokh otletevshego sna.
