Ty velish' mne ravnodushnym
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ty velish' mne ravnodushnym Byt', prekrasnaja, k tebe; Jesli khochesh' zret' poslushnym, Daj drugoje serdce mne. Daj mne serdce, chtob umelo, Znav tebja, svobodnym byt'; Daj takoje, chtob khotelo Ne odnoj toboju zhit'. To, v kotorom obitajet Obraz bespodobnyj tvoj, Serdce, chto toboj stradajet, To i dvizhetsja toboj. V njom uzh chuvstva net drugogo, I drugoj v njom zhizni net; Ty vo t'me muchen'ja zlogo - Zhizn', otrada mne i svet! Vernost' ja l' k tebe narushu? Pervyj vzdokh moj ty vzjala! I chto ja imeju dushu, Ty mne chuvstvovat' dala. Ty mne dushu, ty vlozhila, Tvoj zhe dar nesu tebe; No ty zhertvy zapretila, Ne dozvolju ikh sebe. Lish' ne much' menja, zhelaja, Chtob tvoim prestal ja byt'; Chem, v bezmolvii stradaja, Chem mogu tebja gnevit'? Razve chtish' za prestuplen'e Vzor nebesnyj tvoj uzret', Im povergnut'sja v smushchen'e I bez pomoshchi... terpet'?
