Tol'ko uznal ja tebja (Delvig, set by Akimenko, A. Aliabev, A. Dargomyzhsky, German, M. Glinka, P. Shenk, V. Zolotarev) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Tol'ko uznal ja tebja,
i trepetom sladkim vpervyje
serdce zabilos' vo mne.

Szhala ty ruku moju,
i zhizn', i vse radosti zhizni
v zhertvu tebe ja prinjos.

Ty mne skazala: ,,ljublju``
i chistaja radost' sletela
v mrachnuju dushu moju.

Molcha gljazhu na tebja,
net slova vse muki, vse schastje
vyrazit' strasti mojej.

Kazhduju svetluju mysl',
vysokoje kazhdoje chuvstvo
ty zarozhdajesh' v dushe.
