Текст песни Лермонтов - земля и небо

How can we not love the earth more than heaven?
Heavenly happiness is dark for us;
Although earthly happiness is less than a hundred times,
But we know what it is.
5 To remember the hopes and torments of the past
In us a secret inclination boils;
We are worried about the infidelity of earthly hope,
And the brevity of sadness makes me laugh.
The soul is terrible in the present
10 Coming dark distance;
We would like to taste bliss in heaven,
But we are sorry to part with the world.
What we have in power is more pleasant for us,
Although we are looking for another sometimes
15 But at the hour of parting we see more clearly,
How it became related to the soul.
