Vesennij karnaval (Gradov, set by A. Khachaturian) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Povstrechalis' my sluchajno,
No v prostom pozhat'je ruk
Nerazgadannaja tajna
V `etot den' voznikla vdrug.
Skol'ko par v sadu kruzhilos',
No nikto iz nikh ne znal,
Chto sama ljubov' javilas'
Na vesennij karnaval.
V `etot vecher tancevali
My s toboju vnov' i vnov',
I ni slova ne skazali
My drug drugu pro ljubov'.

Pripev:
  V `etot vecher
  Karnavala
  Khorosho nam bylo s toboj.
  S `etoj vstrechi
  Serdce znalo:
  Ty - moja, ja - tvoj!

Nas krasavica - stolica
Poznakomila vesnoj.
Slovno dva kryla u pticy,
Vmeste my teper' s toboj,
I khotja byvalo mnogo
Rasstavanij i razluk,
Vse tropinki i dogori
Lish' k tebe veli, moj drug.
I vezde na belom svete
Ja, kak pesnju, vspominal
Den', kogda tebja ja vstretil,
Nash vesennij karnaval.
