Строфа 14
I would retell the simple speeches
Отца иль дяди старика,
Of father or my uncle old,
Детей условленные встречи
Or those by kids made secret meetings
У старых лип, у ручейка;
Near ancient trees and stream that’s small;
Несчастной ревности мученья,
There were unhappy jealous torments
Разлуку, слезы примиренья,
And separations, and accord’ tears.
Поссорю вновь, и наконец
Again them quarreled and at last
Я поведу их под венец...
Would I them lead to church aisle fast…
Я вспомню речи неги страстной,
I would recall an ardent talking,
Слова тоскующей любви,
Much words of sadly yearning love,
Которые в минувши дни
Which in past times were main, above
У ног любовницы прекрасной
Words came into my language, hot being
Мне приходили на язык,
I was at feet of fancy girl,
От коих я теперь отвык.
Those words I could then not recall.
