Ja vstretil vas (Tyutchev, set by S. Donaurov, A. Sheremetev) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


 Ja vstretil vas - i vsjo byloje
 V otzhivshem serdce ozhilo;
 Ja vspomnil vremja zolotoje -
 I serdcu stalo tak teplo... 

 Kak pozdnej oseni poroju
 Byvajut dni, byvajet chas,
 Kogda povejet vdrug vesnoju
 I chto-to vstrepenetsja v nas, -

 Tak, ves' obvejan dukhoven'jem
 Tekh let dushevnoj polnoty,
 S davno zabytym upojen'jem
 Smotrju na milyje chjorty... 

 Kak posle vekovoj razluki,
 Gljazhu na vas, kak by vo sne, -
 I vot - slyshneje stali zvuki,
 Ne umolkavshije vo mne... 

 Tut ne odno vospominan'je,
 Tut zhizn' zagovorila vnov', -
 I to zhe v nas ocharovan'je,
 I ta zh v dushe mojej ljubov'!..
