Kak schastliv ja
Language: Russian (Русский) 
   Kak schastliv ja, kogda sizhu s toboju,
Kogda ljubujusja ja, gljadja na tebja,
Tvojeju miloju, ljubeznoj krasotoju...
          Kak schastliv ja!

   Kak schastliv ja, kogda ty, drug moj milyj,
Svoj golos s zvukami gitary s"edinja,
Pojosh' il' pesenku, ili romans unylyj, -
          Kak schastliv ja!

   Kak schastliv ja, kogda umil'nym vzorom,
Prelestnyj, milyj drug, ty podarish' menja
Il' obratish'sja vdrug ko mne ty s razgovorom, -
          Kak schastliv ja!

   Kak schastliv ja, kogda ty ponimajesh'
Iz vzora mojego, skol' ja ljublju tebja,
Kogda mne laskami na laski otvechajesh',
          Kak schastliv ja!

   Kak schastliv ja, kogda svojej rukoju
Ty tikho zhmesh' moju i, gljadja na menja,
Tverdish' vpolgolosa, chto schastliva ty mnoju, -
          Kak schastliv ja!

   Kak schastliv ja, kogda vdrug ostorozhno,
Ukradkoj oto vsekh celujesh' ty menja.
Akh, smertnomu jedva l' tak schastlivym byt' mozhno
          Kak schastliv ja!
