Tol`ko raz by'vayut v zhizni vstrechi
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Den` i noch` ronyaet serdce lasku,
Den` i noch` kruzhitsya golova,
Den` i noch` vzvolnovannoyu skazkoj
Mne zvuchat tvoi slova.

  Tol`ko raz by'vayut v zhizni vstrechi.
  Tol`ko raz sud`boyu rvyotsya nit`,
  Tol`ko raz v xoolodny'j xmury'j vecher
  Mne tak xochetsya lyubit`!

Taet luch purpurnogo zakata,
Sinevoj okutany' czvety'.
Gde zhe ty', zhelannaya kogda-to,
Gde, vo mne budivshaya mechty'?

  Tol`ko raz by'vayut v zhizni vstrechi, itd.
