by Eduard Ivanovich Guber (1814 - 1847)

Pervoe priznanie
Language: Russian (Русский) 
O, poščadi! nakazan ja dovol'no,
U nog tvoich ja kajus' pred toboj;
Duše moej i tjaželo i bol'no,
Izmučen ja žestokoju bor'boj.

Byvali dni: nasmeškoju surovoj
JA porical mne čužduju ljubov';
No ja voskres na lone žizni novoj,
Usta chuloj ne oskvernjatsja vnov'.

JA vinovat; ja kajus' pred toboju!
O, uderži ubijstvennyj otvet!
Progovori nad grešnoj golovoju
Proščenija božestvennyj privet.

Tvoej ljubvi ja trebovat' ne smeju...
Menja ljubit', uvy! ne možeš' ty!
No ozari ulybkoju tvoeju
Poroj moi pečal'nye mečty.

V ulybke toj neždannoju otradoj
Povej na grud' i dušu upoi!
I budet mne živoj ona nagradoj
Za dolgie stradanija moi.

I budet mne svjatym ona zalogom,
Čto na menja tvoj gnev ne upadet,
Čto, možet byt', i nad moim porogom
Zarja ljubvi privetnee blesnet!
