by Alexei Vasilyevich Timofeyev (1812 - 1883)
Ne sudite, lyudi, lyudi dobry'e
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ne sudite, lyudi, lyudi dobry'e, Bestalannuyu golovushku; Ne branite menya, molodcza, Za tosku moyu, kruchinushku. Ne ponyat` vam, lyudi dobry'e, Zloj toski moej, kruchinushki; Ne lyubov` sgubila molodcza, Ne razluka, ne navet lyudskoj. Serdce noet, noet den` i noch`, [Ishhet, zhdyot, chego ne vedaya]1; Tak by' vsyo v slezax i tayalo, Tak by' vsyo v slezax i vy'lilos`. Gde vy', gde vy', dni razgul`ny'e, Dni by'ly'e - vesna krasnaya?.. Ne vidat` vas bol`she molodczu, Ne nazhit` emu proshedshego! Rasstupis` zhe ty', sy'ra zemlya, Rastvoryajsya, moj doschaty'j grob! Priyuti menya v nenastny'j den`, Uspokoj moj utomlenny'j dux!
