by Aleksey Vasil'yevich Kol'tsov (1808 - 1842)

Опять тоску, опять любовь
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Опять тоску, опять любовь
В моей душе ты заронила
И прежнее, былое вновь
Приветным взором оживила.
Ах! для чего мне пламенеть
Любовью сердца безнадежной?
Мой кроткий ангел, друг мой нежный,
Не мой удел тобой владеть!
Но я любим, любим тобою!
О, для чего же нам судьбою
Здесь не даны в удел благой,
Назло надменности людской,
Иль счастье, иль одна могила!
Ты жизнь моя, моя ты сила!..
Горю огнём любви святым,
Доверься ж, хоть на миг моим
Обьятиям! Я не нарушу
Священных клятв — их грудь хранит,
И верь, страдальческую душу
Преступное не тяготит…
