by Mikhail Yur'yevich Lermontov (1814 - 1841)
Esli, drug, tebe sgrustnetsya
Language: Russian (Русский)
Esli, drug, tebe sgrustnetsya, Ty' ne dujsya, ne serdis`: Vsyo s godami pronesetsya — Uly'bnis` i razgrustis`. Dev izmeny' molody'e I neverny'j put` chestej I mgnoven`ya skuki zly'e Stoyat li toski tvoej? Ne ishhi strastej tyazhely'x; I pokuda bog daet, Nektar pej chasov vesely'x; A pechal` sama pridet. I, lyudej ne preziraya, Ne beris` uchit` drugix; Luchshim by't` ne vobrazhaya, Skoro ty' polyubish` ix. Serdce glupoe tvoren`e, No i s serdcem mozhno zhit`, I bezumnoe volnen`e Mozhno takzhe ukrotit`... Beden! kto, sud`by' v nenast`e Vse nadezhdy' ispy'tav, Nakonecz naxodit schast`e, Chuvstvo schast`ya poteryav.
