Tikhaja, zvezdnaja noch'

Tikhaja, zvezdnaja noch',
Trepetno svetit luna;
Sladki usta krasoty
V tikhuju, zvezdnuju noch'.
 
Drug moj! v sijan'i nochnom
Kak mne pechal' prevozmoch'?..
Ty zhe svetla, kak ljubov',
V tikhuju, zvezdnuju noch'.
 
Drug moj, ja zvezdy ljublju -
I ot pechali ne proch'...
Ty zhe eshche mne milej
V tikhuju, zvezdnuju noch'.
