Our translations: ENG FRE

Ach, začem tvoi glazki poroju
Na menja tak surovo gljadjat
I tomit moju dušu toskoju
Tvoj cholodnyj, nelaskovyj vzgljad,

Tvoj cholodnyj, nelaskovyj vzgljad?

Bez ulybki i v gordom molčan'i
Ty prochodiš' kak ten' predo mnoju,
I, v duše zataivši stradan'e,
JA revnivo sležu za toboju,

Revnivo sležu za toboju.

Ty ljubov'ju svoej ozarjala,
Kak vesnoj, moi grustnye dni.
Prilaskaj že menja, kak byvalo,
Laskoj proč' moju grust' otgoni.

Prilaskaj že menja, kak byvalo,
Laskoj proč' moju grust' otgoni.
Začem že tvoi glazki poroju
Na menja tak surovo, tak surovo gljadjat.
