by Nikolay Ivanovich Shishkin (1845 - 1911)

Слушайте, если хотите
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Слушайте, если хотите,
Песню я вам спою
И в звуках песни этой открою
Всю душу свою.

Мне так отрадно с вами
Носиться над волнами,
Что в безвозвратную даль
Умчаться мне было б не жаль.

И этой тихой ночью,
Когда кругом всё спит,
Не дремлет моё сердце,
Оно сильней стучит.

В душе же так тревожно,
Боюсь, что невозможно
Ещё когда-нибудь
Мне эту ночь вернуть.
