by Pyotr Ivanovich Shalikov (1767/8 - 1852)

Russkaja pesnja
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Nynche byl ja pochtovom na dvore -
L'stil sebe najti ot milen'koj pis'mo,
I - poshjol nazad s unyloju dushoj.
Net pis'ma! ... net serdcu radosti ni v chjom!
Akh! davno, davno ne pishet uzh ko mne
Ta, kotoroju na svete ja zhivu;
Ta, kotora uverjala tak menja,
Chto v razluke jej otrada tol'ko v tom,
Chtob pisat' ko mne... o goresti svojej!...
Chto zh meshajet jej v otrade toj teper'?
Chto meshajet serdce druga ozhivit'?
Neuzhel' zabyt ja miloju mojej?
Neuzheli son byl schastije mojo?...
Net, ne mozhet stat'sja `etogo vovek!
Ja dovol'no znaju miluju moju:
Jejo serdce ne umejet izmenit';
Jejo serdce vek ostanetsja moim -
Znat', svobodnogo i v tereme svojom
Ne imejet ona vremeni chasa;
Il' prepjatstvujut nedobry ljudi jej
K drugu gramotki chrez pochtu posylat'...
No, chto b ni bylo prichinoju togo, -
Lish' byla b zdorova milaja moja!
