Ja na tebja gljazhu (Romanov, set by A. Rubinstein) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Ja na tebja gljazhu, ljubujas' jezhechasno:
‎Ty tak nevyrazimo khorosha!
O, verno pod takoj naruzhnost'ju prekrasnoj
‎Takaja zhe prekrasnaja dusha!

Kakoj-to krotosti i grusti sokrovennoj
‎V tvoikh ochakh taitsja glubina;
Kak angel, ty tikha, chista i sovershenna;
‎Kak zhenshchina, stydliva i nezhna.

Pust' na zemle nichto sred' zol i skorbi mnogoj
‎Tvoju ne zapjatnaet chistotu,
I vsjakij, uvidav tebja, proslavit Boga,
‎Sozdavshego takuju krasotu!
