Sulamita
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ya — roza Sarona, ya — landy'sh dolin! Ot bashen Sidonskix do Chermny'x puchin, Ot Nila do rek Ninevii dalekoj Net krashe menya mezhdu zhenshhin Vostoka. Sy'ny' moej materi, zlobno klyanya, Sterech` vinogradnik poslali menya; No solnce s nebes lyubovalosya mnoyu I znojnoj menya odarilo krasoyu. Spustilas` ya gornoj tropoj v vertograd Smotret`, kak czvetet molodoj vinograd, Kak zy'blyutsya travy' bol`shimi volnami, Kak statny'j granat uvenchalsya czvetami, — No tam ne nashla ya vesennix czvetov... Nashla ya togda v vertograde lyubov`!.. Moj mily'j — kak czar` sredi czarskogo stana, I riz ego zapax — chto zapax Livana! On vlastno obvil menya pravoj rukoj; Drugaya ruka — pod moej golovoj... Mne dajte vina! YA ot schast`ya stradayu!.. Mne dajte vina... Ot lyubvi umirayu!..
