by Ivan Sergeyevich Turgenev (1818 - 1883)

Zametila li ty', o drug moj molchalivy'j
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Zametila li ty', o drug moj molchalivy'j,
O moj zaby'ty'j drug, o drug moej vesny',
Chto v kazhdom dne est` mig glubokoj, boyazlivoj,
Pochti vnezapnoj tishiny'?

I v e`toj tishine est` chto-to nezemnoe,
Nevy'razimoe… dusha molchit i zhdet:
Kak budto v e`tot mig vse strastnoe, zhivoe
O smerti vspomnit i zamret.

O, esli v e`tot mig nevol`noyu toskoyu
Stesnitsya grud` tvoya i vy'stupit sleza…
Podumaj, chto stoyu ya vnov` pered toboyu,
Chto ya glyazhu tebe v glaza.

Lyubov` pogibshuyu ty' vspomni bez pechali;
Proshedshemu, moj drug, predat`sya ne sty'dis`…
My' zhizni xot` na mig drug drugu ruki dali,
My' xot` na mig s toboj soshlis`.
