by Paul Verlaine (1844 - 1896)
Translation by Lev L'vovich Kobylinsky (1889 - 1947)

Камин мерцающий, от лампы свет ленивый
Language: Russian (Русский)  after the French (Français) 
Камин мерцающий, от лампы свет ленивый,
Чело склоненное под думой молчаливой.
Закрытые тома, шум, смех, вечерний чай
И в глубине очей прекрасных светлый рай!..
Истома легкая и радость ожиданья... —
И в тишине ночной восторги и лобзанья!..
О милый, нежный сон, повсюду ты со мной,
Пусть мимо дни ползут, ты верный спутник мой!
