In moments to delight devoted

In moments to delight devoted
«My life» with tenderest tone you cry;
Dear words! on which my heart had doted,
If Youth could neither fade or die.
To Death even hours like these must roll,
Ah! then repeat those accents never;
Or change «my Life» into «my Soul»
Which, like my Love, exists for ever.

V [kipen'je]1 nezhnosti serdechnoj
ty zhizn'ju druga nazvala:
privet bescennyj, jesli b vechno

K mogile [vse]2 letit streloju,
i ty, menja laskaja vnov',
zovi ne zhizn'ju, a dushoju,
bessmertnoj, kak moja ljubov'.
