Zabyli vy (Kozlov, set by V. Aloiz, A. Petrov, K. Petrov) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Gljadja na luch purpurnogo zakata,
Stojali my na beregu Nevy.
Vy ruku zhali mne; promchalsja bez vozvrata
Tot sladkij mig; jego zabyli vy...

Do groba vy kljalis' ljubit' po`eta;
Bojas' ljudej, bojas' pustoj molvy,
Vy ne nepolnili svjashchennogo obeta;
Svoju ljubov' - i tu zabyli vy...

No smert' blizka; blizka moja mogila.
Kogda umru, kak tikhij shum travy,
Moji golos prozvuchit i skazhet vam unylo:
On vami zhil... jego zabyli vy!...
