Tishe, lastochka boltliva! Tishe, tishe; polno pet'! Ty s zareju vnov' schastliva, - Akh, a mne prishlo terpet'! Ja rasstat'sja dolzhen s miloj Na zare, k moim slezam... O luna! tvoj svet [unyloj]1 Krashe solnyshka byl nam! Tishe, lastochka boltliva! Tishe, tishe; polno pet'! Ty s zareju vnov' schastliva, - Akh, a mne prishlo terpet'! Znat', i sonnaja mechtala O ljubovi ty svojej: Ty k utekham rano vstala, A ja -- k goresti mojej! Tishe, lastochka boltliva! Tishe, tishe; polno pet'! Ty s zareju vnov' schastliva, - Akh, a mne prishlo terpet'! O, kogda b i ty imela Uchast', ravnuju so mnoj, Ty b molchala, a ne pela I vstrechala den' s toskoj.
