Chto on khodit za mnoj
Language: Russian (Русский)
Chto on khodit za mnoj, Vsjudu ishchet menja I, vstrechajas', gljadit Tak lukavo vsegda? Chto smeshnova vo mne — Ja ponjat' ne mogu; I za mnoju khodit' — Kto dal pravo jemu? Pomnju, kak to davno U znakomykh byl bal; Kak bezumnyj, vsju noch' On so mnoj tanceval! Slova net — on khorosh: Brovi, nos i lico, No glaza — za glaza — Nenavizhu jego! Golubye oni… I kak zharko gorjat! Budto jada polny, Budto s"est' vas khotjat! Vashikh d'javol'skikh glaz Ja bojus' kak ognja!..
