by Smbat Shahaziz (1841 - 1907)
Translation by Yury Alekseyevich Veselovsky (1872 - 1919)

Moyo serdce ob``yato toskoj
Language: Russian (Русский)  after the Armenian (հայերեն) 
Moyo serdce ob``yato toskoj…
YA ne znayu, chto rok mne sulit!
YA tomlyus`, kak v temnice sy'roj…
Chto-to grud` moyu davit, tomit…

Zhizn` v dushe zatixaet moej…
Gasnet yunosti radostny'j svet!
I lyubvi k miru zla i skorbej
V moyom serdce izmuchennom net!..

Grustno yunost` pobleknet, umryot
Bez uchast`ya i laski lyudskoj…
Skoro l` tyazhkoe bremya spadyot,
Il` zemlya mne daruet pokoj?..

Mrachen zhizni moej nebosklon…
Mne doroga vperyod ne yasna…
Lish` cherneet vdali Axeron, —
I na nyom ya ne vizhu chelna!

Dux moj slab, bezuteshen i nem,
Nelegka moya zhizn` i bor`ba…
Krest tyazhyol… O, zachem zhe, zachem
Ty' menya obmanula, sud`ba?!.
