by Nikolay Vladimirovich Zubov (1867 - c1906)

Byt' možet
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Byt' možet, i my razojdemsja
I, Bog vest', sojdemsja li vnov',
Byt' možet, i my posmeemsja
Nad tem, čto budilo ljubov',
I pust' už ljubit' ja ne budu,
Drugie tebja uvlekut,
No ver', ja tebja ne zabudu
Za neskol'ko svetlych minut.

Byt' možet, ne v silach borot'sja
Mne budet s toskoj po tebe,
Byt' možet, vsja žizn' razob'etsja
I duch moj ugasnet vo mne.
No znaj, chot' v živych ja ne budu,
Pust' trup moj v mogilu kladut,
I tam ja tebja ne zabudu
Za neskol'ko svetlych minut.

Byt' možet, menja ty vspomjaneš',
Ko mne na mogilu prideš'…
Byt' možet, kak ja, ty uvjaneš'
I v večnost' za mnoju ujdeš'.
No pomni, v raju li ja budu
Il' a ad za grechi povedut,
No ver', ja tebja ne zabudu
Za neskol'ko svetlych minut.
