Я вижу образ твой, когда зари дыханье с природы дремлющей свевает мрак густой, и льётся по полям цветов благоуханье, - Я вижу образ твой. Я вижу образ твой, когда слеза катится из голубых очей денницы золотой, и роза в ручеёк серебряный глядится, - Я вижу образ твой. Я вижу образ твой, как солнце, царь вселенной, торжественно на свод несётся голубой, и в каждой капле вод, лучами позлащенной, - Я вижу образ твой. Я вижу образ твой, и день как угасает, и бледная луна плывет в тени ночной и в сладкое меня забвенье погружает, - Я вижу образ твой.

I see your image, when the breath of dawn Dispels thick darkness from slumbering nature And pours out flowers' fragrance along the fields. I see your image. [I see your image, when a tear rolls From blue eyes of the golden dawn And a rose regards itself in a silver stream. I see your image.] I see your image, as soon as the sun, tsar of the universe, Triumphantly ascends the blue firmament And in every droplet of water, golden with its rays, I see your image. I see your image, when the day is fading And the pale moon swims in the shadow of the night, Immersing me in sweet surrender. I see your image.
