Es hat die Rose sich beklagt

Language: German

Es hat die Rose sich beklagt,
Daß gar zu schnell der Duft vergehe
Den ihr den Lenz gegeben habe.
Da hab' ich ihr zum Trost gesagt,
Daß er durch meine Lieder wehe,
Und dort ein ew'ges Leben habe.

Mne rozan zhalobno skazal

Language: Russian

 Mne rozan zhalobno skazal:
 "Ne dolgo ja dushist byvaju:
 vesna projdjot, i umiraju."
 Ja v uteshen'je otvechal,
 chto zhizn' jego oberegaju
 i v pesne k zhizni vozvrashchaju.
