Текст песни Державин - Сам по себе

I knew you wouldn't get old
And you won’t leave anywhere
I know you still believe
What time is not a year.
You didn't promise anyone
Of my untouched love
You just lived like that,
Call it what you want.

By itself
I lived like a free wind
By itself
Not believing, not loving
On its own, but never in the world
I do not want to live without you.

Who is to blame that I have not met
For many years anyone
And often my fellow traveler is the wind
He whispered to my soul: "Forget it!"
Watch the sky endless
Burning, a star falls
And you have been careless all your life
But she never loved.

You lowered the curtains
Your voice has become a stranger
And suddenly, crying like a child,
She pressed her wet cheek.
You whispered to me that you were tired
That there is no strength to be alone
And the night is gone, but you stayed
For many winters and many years.
