Kogda b ya znal
Language: Russian (Русский)
Kogda b ya znal, naprasno zhizni silu, Naprasno by' ya yunost` ne teryal. Tvoya lyubov` mne serdce istomila, Kogda b ya znal, kogda b ya znal! Klyalas` mne ty', i ya utratil gryozy', Molilas` ty', molit`sya ya ne stal, Ry'dala ty', i ya ne veryu v slyozy', Kogda b ya znal, kogda b ya znal! Mutitsya um, v grudi toska nemaya, Naprasno ya zabven`e prizy'val. Zab`venya net, tyazhyoly'j put` konchaya, YA proshepchu: ,,Kogda b ya znal!``
