Ne vchera li v khorovode
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ne vchera li v khorovode Ty igral, druzhok, so mnoj? Ne vchera li pri narode Nazyval menja dushoj? Ne vchera li voskhishchalsja Rech'ju devushki, licom? Ne vchera li pomenjalsja Ty so mnoj svoim kol'com? Ne vchera l' v ljubvi bezmernoj Ty, zhestokij, uverjal? Ne vchera l' mne, legkovernoj, Serdce, dushu obeshchal? A segodnja?.. O, kovarstvo! Ty menja uzhe zabyl! I druguju za bogatstvo, Drug nevernyj, poljubil! Ja ne tak, druzhok, bogata, Kak prelestnica tvoja! Net ni zhemchugov, ni zlata, No uzhel' bez serdca ja? Poljubiv tebja serdechno, Budu do smerti ljubit': Kto poljubit, tot, konechno, Uzh ne v silakh razljubit'. Veselis'!.. a ja stradaju! Akh! takov li kljatv zalog? Veselis', druzhok, ja znaju: Za menja otplatit bog!
