by Yakov Petrovich Polonsky (1819 - 1898)

Zapletya svoi tyomny'e kosy' venczom
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Zapletya svoi tyomny'e kosy' venczom,
Ty' napomnila mne poludetskim liczom
Vsyo to schast`e, kotory'm my' grezim vo sne,
Gryozy' detskoj lyubvi ty' napomnila mne.

Ty' napomnila mne znoem tyomny'x ochej
Luchezarny'e teni vostochny'x nochej —
Mrak czvetushhix sadov — bledny'j lik pri lune, —
Buri pervy'x strastej ty' napomnila mne.

Ty' napomnila mne mnogo mily'x tenej
Prostotoj, tyomny'm czvetom odezhdy' tvoej.
I mogilu, i slyozy', i bred v tishine
Odinokix nochej ty' napomnila mne.

Vsyo, chto v zhizni s uly'bkoj navstrechu mne shlo,
Vsyo, chto vremya navek ot menya uneslo,
Vsyo, chto giblo, i vsyo, chto stremilos` lyubit`, —
Ty' napomnila mne. — Pomogi pozaby't`!
