Sulamita
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ja — roza Sarona, ja — landyš dolin! Ot bašen Sidonskich do Čermnych pučin, Ot Nila do rek Ninevii dalekoj Net kraše menja meždu ženščin Vostoka. Syny moej materi, zlobno kljanja, Stereč' vinogradnik poslali menja; No solnce s nebes ljubovalosja mnoju I znojnoj menja odarilo krasoju. Spustilas' ja gornoj tropoj v vertograd Smotret', kak cvetet molodoj vinograd, Kak zybljutsja travy bol'šimi volnami, Kak statnyj granat uvenčalsja cvetami, — No tam ne našla ja vesennich cvetov... Našla ja togda v vertograde ljubov'!.. Moj milyj — kak car' sredi carskogo stana, I riz ego zapach — čto zapach Livana! On vlastno obvil menja pravoj rukoj; Drugaja ruka — pod moej golovoj... Mne dajte vina! JA ot sčast'ja stradaju!.. Mne dajte vina... Ot ljubvi umiraju!..
