by Grigory Pavlovich Rzhevsky (1763 - 1830)

Nedoumenie
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Kakoe čuvstvo, ja ne znaju,
Mne serdce napolnjaet vnov'!
Skaži mne, ja uznat' želaju,
Čto družba ėto il' ljubov'?
Ne strašno prežde mne byvalo,
I mysl' i serdce vsem otkryt',
No serdce čuvstvovat' čto stalo
Ot vsech starajus' nyne skryt'.

To vdrug tebja ja ubegaju,
To pospešaju videt' vnov'!
Skaži mne, pravo, ja ne znaju,
Čto družba ėto il' ljubov'?
S toboju veselo mne bylo,
No mog i bez tebja probyt';
Grustilo serdce, no ne nylo,
Svobodno myslit' mog i žit'.

No esli ty k sčastlivoj dole,
So mnoju čuvstva odnogo,
Ne stanu sprašivat' ja bole
O čuvstvach serdca svoego.
Ego mučen'ja pozabudu,
Pylat' s vostorgom stanet krov',
I vek chranit' ja v serdce budu
K tebe i družbu, i ljubov'.
