Влюблён я, дева‑красота

Language: Russian (Русский)

Our translations: ENG

Влюблён я, дева-красота,
В твой разговор, живой и страстный,
В твой голос, ангелский прекрасный,
В твои румяные уста.

Дай мне тобой любоваться,
Наслушаться твоих речей,
Упиться песнею твоей,
Твоим дыханьем надышаться!

I am in love, my beauty

Language: English after the Russian (Русский)

 I am in love, my beauty,
 with your conversation, lively and passionate,
 with your voice, as lovely as an angel's,
 with your rosy lips.
 
 Let me admire you,
 listen to you talk,
 delight in your songs,
 and breathe in your breath!
