Priroda i ljubov'

Smotri, smotri: po golubomu nebu vsplyvajet polnaja luna!
Kak `eta noch', kak `eta noch' vesennej vlagi blagoukhanija,
polna blagoukhan'ja!
Kak zvjozdy bleshchut, zvjozdy bleshchut,
otrazhajas' v volnakh zhurchashchego ruch'ja!
I, slushaj, slushaj, izdali nesjotsja, izdali nesjotsja,
nesjotsja pesnja, pesnja solov'ja!

Slyshu!

Skazhi, chto slashche, chto polnej prirody chistykh naslazhdenij,
nam v nej odnoj najti pokoj ot bur' i zhizni trebolnenij!
Net, luchshe jest', net,

Skazhi, chto luchshe, chto polnej prirody chistykh naslazhdenij,
nam v nej odnoj najti pokoj ot bur' i zhizni trebolnenij;
Priroda, ty prekrasna;
Skazhi, chto luchshe, chto polnej prirody chistykh naslazhdenij?
Pover', ljublju, ljublju ja prelest' nochi, ljublju polnochnuju lunu,
Akh, chto za noch'!
Ljublju i zvjozd sverkajushchije ochi, i `etot mir, i `etot mir i tishinu.
No ja sil'neje naslazhden'je ljublju, ljublju sredi nochnoj tishi;
svidan'ja tajnogo, tajnogo tomlen'ja,
poryvy strastnyje, strastnyje ljubvi, poryvy ljubvi!
Net, net.
Skazhi, chto slashche, chto polnej ljubvi nevinnykh naslazhdenij,
skol'ko utekh v nej my najdjom ot bur' i zhizni trevolnenij,
Byt' mozhet tak,
Ona prava.

Skazhi, chto slashche, chto polnej ljubvi nevinnykh naslazhdenij,
Skol'ko utekh v nej my najdjom ot bur' i zhizni trevolnenij, 
Skol'ko utekh v nej my najdjom ot bur' i trevolnenij, 
Ljubov', kak ty prekrasna!

Skazhi, chto luchshe, chto polnej ljubvi nevinnykh naslazhdenij,
v nej uteshen'ja ishchem my ot bur' i trevolnenij,
v nej uteshen'ja ishchem my ot bur' i trevolnenij, ot bur' i trevolnenij.
Ljubov'! ljubov'! akh! kak ty prekrasna!
