Возвращались моремъ сны дѣвичьи.
Ткала дѣвка тонко полотно,
Собирала къ Пасхѣ яйца птичьи,
Украшала вербами окно.
Завивала гибкія ресницы,
Мыла тѣло въ травяныхъ водахъ,
Опускала ноги въ мѣхъ куницы –
Хорошѣла прямо на глазахъ.
Вѣдь сердечко было ей отъ Бога,
Въ немъ любви хватило-бъ всѣмъ живымъ.
Но точила бѣлу грудь тревога,
Не увидѣться ужъ больше съ нимъ.
Обернулась свѣтлою поляной,
Зазвенѣла питьевымъ ключомъ
И прикрылась зоренькой багряной
На перинѣ, сотканной плющомъ.
Сколько проспала – Всевышний знаетъ.
Пробудилась липовым цвѣткомъ.
Слышитъ, кто-то жалобно играетъ
На волынкѣ въ унисонъ съ дождемъ.
И забилось горлицей сердечко:
Дождалась! Теперь ей не уснуть!
Наметала ягодой колечко –
Стало быть, имъ завтра вмѣстѣ въ путь!
Наблюдала сонъ любимаго ревниво,
Прогоняла самый тихій вѣтерокъ.
А съ разсвѣтомъ провожала в путь тоскливо:
Сонъ не въ руку, а въ зарокъ добавленъ срокъ.
Обернулася холоднымъ бабьимъ лѣтомъ,
Съ паутины выткала вуаль
И уснула тихимъ, синимъ небомъ,
Безупречно чистая, какъ даль.
The sea of dreams returned.
Weaving a girl thinly linen,
Collected Easter eggs from birds,
She decorated the window with willows.
Curled flexible eyelashes,
Soaps in grassy waters,
She dropped her legs into the marten -
I looked good right in front of my eyes.
Her heart was from God,
There was enough love in him; all alive.
But anxiety sharpened my chest,
Do not see him anymore.
Turned into a glade of light
Drunk with a key
And she covered herself with a deep red crimson
On the feather bed, woven with ivy.
How many overslept - the Most High knows.
Awakened by lime flowers.
Hear, someone is playing plaintively
On the bagpipes in unison with the rain.
And the heart beat with a throat:
I waited! Now she can’t fall asleep!
Laid a berry ring -
Therefore, tomorrow they must go the way!
I watched a dream beloved jealously,
Chased the quietest vterok.
But she soon saw me sadly on the road:
Sleep not in your hand, but in vow the term has been added.
She turned into a cold woman’s summer
The cobwebs wove the veil
And fell asleep quiet, blue sky,
Perfectly clean, far away.
