by Eduard Ivanovich Guber (1814 - 1847)

Pervoje priznanije
Language: Russian (Русский) 
O, poshchadi! nakazan ja dovol'no,
U nog tvoikh ja kajus' pred toboj;
Dushe mojej i tjazhelo i bol'no,
Izmuchen ja zhestokoju bor'boj.

Byvali dni: nasmeshkoju surovoj
Ja porical mne chuzhduju ljubov';
No ja voskres na lone zhizni novoj,
Usta khuloj ne oskvernjatsja vnov'.

Ja vinovat; ja kajus' pred toboju!
O, uderzhi ubijstvennyj otvet!
Progovori nad greshnoj golovoju
Proshchenija bozhestvennyj privet.

Tvojej ljubvi ja trebovat' ne smeju...
Menja ljubit', uvy! ne mozhesh' ty!
No ozari ulybkoju tvojeju
Poroj moi pechal'nye mechty.

V ulybke toj nezhdannoju otradoj
Povej na grud' i dushu upoi!
I budet mne zhivoj ona nagradoj
Za dolgije stradanija moi.

I budet mne svjatym ona zalogom,
Chto na menja tvoj gnev ne upadet,
Chto, mozhet byt', i nad moim porogom
Zarja ljubvi privetneje blesnet!
