Ty' velish` mne ravnodushny'm
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ty' velish` mne ravnodushny'm By't`, prekrasnaya, k tebe; Esli xochesh` zret` poslushny'm, Daj drugoe serdce mne. Daj mne serdce, chtob umelo, Znav tebya, svobodny'm by't`; Daj takoe, chtob xotelo Ne odnoj toboyu zhit`. To, v kotorom obitaet Obraz bespodobny'j tvoj, Serdce, chto toboj stradaet, To i dvizhetsya toboj. V nyom uzh chuvstva net drugogo, I drugoj v nyom zhizni net; Ty' vo t`me muchen`ya zlogo - Zhizn`, otrada mne i svet! Vernost` ya l` k tebe narushu? Pervy'j vzdox moj ty' vzyala! I chto ya imeyu dushu, Ty' mne chuvstvovat` dala. Ty' mne dushu, ty' vlozhila, Tvoj zhe dar nesu tebe; No ty' zhertvy' zapretila, Ne dozvolyu ix sebe. Lish` ne much` menya, zhelaya, Chtob tvoim prestal ya by't`; Chem, v bezmolvii stradaya, Chem mogu tebya gnevit`? Razve chtish` za prestuplen`e Vzor nebesny'j tvoj uzret`, Im povergnut`sya v smushhen`e I bez pomoshhi... terpet`?
