by Nikolay Alekseyevich von Ritter (1846 - 1919)
Ach, začem ėta noč'
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ach, začem ėta noč' Tak byla choroša! Ne bolela by grud', Ne stradala b duša... Aromatnoj vesnoj Povstrečalsja ja s nej. Rascvetali cvety, Sladko pel solovej. Vsej dušoj otdalsja, Liš' odnoj eju žil, Celoval, miloval I bezumno ljubil. Ne vnimaja mol'bam I rydan'jam moim, Vdrug pošla pod venec Ne so mnoj, a s drugim. I nikto ne vidal, Kak ja v cerkvi stojal, Prislonivšis' k stene, Bezutešno rydal. Tak k čemu ž mne stradat', Dlja čego že mne žit', Kol' ee zloj sud'boj Ne dano mne ljubit'.
