Obojmi, poceluj (Kol'tsov, set by M. Balakirev) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Obojmi, poceluj, prigolub', prilaskaj
Jeshchjo raz poskorej poceluj gorjachej.
Chto pechal'no gljadish'?
Chto na serdce tajish'?

Ne toskuj, ne gorjuj,
Iz ochej sljoz ne lej;
Mne ne nadobno ikh,
Mne ne nuzhno toski.

Muchit dushu moju, tvoj pechal'nyj ubor;
Dlja chego ty v nego narjadila sebja?
Razrjadis', uberis' v svoj narjad goluboj
I na plechi nakin' shal' s kajmoj raspisnoj.

Kak mne milo teper' ljubovat'sja toboj!
Kak vesna, khorosha ty, nevesta moja!
Obojmi zh, poceluj, prigolub', prilaskaj,
Jeshchjo raz poskorej poceluj gorjachej!
