by Konstantin Konstantinovich Romanov, Grand Duke of Russia (1858 - 1915)

Я на тебя гляжу, любуясь ежечасно
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Я на тебя гляжу, любуясь ежечасно:
‎Ты так невыразимо хороша!
О, верно под такой наружностью прекрасной
‎Такая же прекрасная душа!

Какой-то кротости и грусти сокровенной
‎В твоих очах таится глубина;
Как ангел, ты тиха, чиста и совершенна;
‎Как женщина, стыдлива и нежна.

Пусть на земле ничто средь зол и скорби многой
‎Твою не запятнает чистоту,
И всякий, увидав тебя, прославит Бога,
‎Создавшего такую красоту!
