Razgadka
Russian source:
Ivan Sergeyevich Turgenev
Kak prilivala k serdcu
Vsja krov' v grudi mojej,
Kogda v menja vperjalis'
Luchi tvoikh ochej!
Mne dolgo neponjaten
Byl ikh jazyk nemoj...
Iskal jego znachen'ja
I s strakhom i toskoj...
Vdrug vse somnen'ja pali
I strakh navek zatikh...
Moj angel, vse ja ponjal
V odin blazhennyj mig,
V blazhennyj mig,
V odin blazhennyj mig!
Vsja krov' v grudi mojej,
Kogda v menja vperjalis'
Luchi tvoikh ochej!
Mne dolgo neponjaten
Byl ikh jazyk nemoj...
Iskal jego znachen'ja
I s strakhom i toskoj...
Vdrug vse somnen'ja pali
I strakh navek zatikh...
Moj angel, vse ja ponjal
V odin blazhennyj mig,
V blazhennyj mig,
V odin blazhennyj mig!
