Zaceluj menja do smerti (Andreyev, set by A. Dyubyuk, Shtutsman) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Zaceluj menja do smerti -
Ot tebja i smert' mila;
Ne na gore zhe, pover'te,
Zhizn' ot Boga nam dana!

Bez ljubvi i zhizn' ne v radost',
Bez ob"jatij net ljubvi;
Ja izvedal zhizni sladost',
Ja uznal ves' zhar v krovi!

Umirat' ved' nam ne nado!
Tak uzh luchshe, cherez kraj
Vypiv sladostnogo jada,
Na zemle izvedat' raj!

K zhizni toj blizka doroga!
Ja mgnovenija lovlju -
Zaceluj menja do smerti,
I ja smert' blagoslovlju.
