lyrics

2. Была весна

Была весна, мы встретились с тобой случайно,
Я молод был, а ты совсем еще дитя.

И в двух сердцах открылась наша тайна,
И мы влюбились, влюбились а мы не шутя.

Всё чаще, чаще были у на с тобой свидания,
В глухом саду, в сиреневом да кусту.

Твой робкий, робкий смех, и робкое моё лобзание,
Лишь соловей подслушивает нас.

Ой, Боже ж, Боже мой, что делает со мной природа -
Без двух вещей прожить я не могу:

Без милого растаю я как свечка, а без любви
Засохну как трава.

2. And it was spring

And it was spring, we met with you by chance.
You were so young, and I'm still quite a child.

And in two hearts our secret was revealed,
We fell in love, we fell in love for real.

Our meetings were more often and more often,
In the back garden, in the lilac bush.

Your timid, timid laugh, my timid, timid kissing,
The nightingale alone will overhear us.

Good Heavens, Holy God, what nature does to me,
I cannot live without just two things.

Without my sweet I’ll languish like a candle,
And without love I’ll wither like a grass.
