by Eduard Ivanovich Guber (1814 - 1847)

Dushe
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Umri, zaglokhni, strast' mjatezhnaja,
Dushi pechal'noj ne volnuj!
Ne dlja tebja, nadezhda nezhnaja,
Ljubvi gorjachij poceluj!
Zachem ty trebujesh' uchastija,
Dusha-stradalica moja,
Tebe l' iskat' zemnogo schastija
V kholodnom mire, v kholodnom mire bytija,
V kholodnom mire bytija.

Ne ty l' spodobilas' stradanija
Ot junykh let, ot pervykh dnej?
Nesi zh svoj krest bez sodroganija,
Krasujsja jazvami skorbej!
No dolgo slovo otverzhenija
Volnujet plamennuju krov',
No strashno slushat' smekh prezrenija
V otvet, v otvet na znojnuju ljubov',
V otvet na znojnuju ljubov'.

Dlja vsekh cvetet nadezhda nezhnaja,
Ljubov' dlja vsekh dana sud'boj;
Lish' dlja tebja, dusha mjatezhnaja,
Dushi ne sozdano drugoj.
