Do poslednego dnya
Language: Russian (Русский)
By't` mozhet, kogda ty' ujdyosh` ot menya, Ty' budesh` ko mne xolodnej. No celuyu zhizn`, do poslednego dnya, O, drug moj, ty' budesh` moej. YA znayu, chto novy'e strasti pridut, S drugim ty' zabudesh`sya vnov`. No v pamyati prezhnie obrazy' zhdut, I staraya tleet lyubov`. I budet muchitel`no sladostny'j mig: — V luchax otletevshego dnya, S drugim zaglyanuvshi v bessmertny'j rodnik, Ty' vzdrognesh` — i vspomnish` menya.
