by Mikhail Yur'yevich Lermontov (1814 - 1841)
Esli, drug, tebe sgrustnetsja
Language: Russian (Русский)
Esli, drug, tebe sgrustnetsja, Ty ne dujsja, ne serdis': Vsë s godami pronesetsja — Ulybnis' i razgrustis'. Dev izmeny molodye I nevernyj put' čestej I mgnoven'ja skuki zlye Stojat li toski tvoej? Ne išči strastej tjaželych; I pokuda bog daet, Nektar pej časov veselych; A pečal' sama pridet. I, ljudej ne preziraja, Ne beris' učit' drugich; Lučšim byt' ne vobražaja, Skoro ty poljubiš' ich. Serdce glupoe tvoren'e, No i s serdcem možno žit', I bezumnoe volnen'e Možno takže ukrotit'... Beden! kto, sud'by v nenast'e Vse nadeždy ispytav, Nakonec nachodit sčast'e, Čuvstvo sčast'ja poterjav.
