В альбом Княжны А. Д. Абамелек
Language: Russian (Русский)
Когда-то (помню с умиленьем) Я смел вас няньчить с восхищеньем, Вы были дивное дитя. Вы расцвели - с благоговеньем Вам ныне поклоняюсь я. За вами сердцем и глазами С невольным трепетом ношусь И вашей славою и вами, Как нянька старая, горжусь.

Do alba
Language: Czech (Čeština) after the Russian (Русский)
Vás, poupě, na loktech jsem choval. Toť dávno: kdo by nelitoval a nevzpomínal oněch let? Teď z poupěte je plný květ, a já, kde zhlédnu jei, tam běžím. A v srdci starch a v prsou trn, vás jak svou zřítelnici střežím, nad vaší krásou, zjevem svězím jak stará chůva pýchy pln, pln.
