TRANSLATION OF THE LYRICS:
Amid the noisy ball, by chance,
In the alarm of worldly vanity,
I saw you, but a mystery
Covered your features.
Just the eyes looked sadly
And the voice sounded so wonderful
Like the ringing of a distant fife,
Like a playing shaft of the sea.
I liked your slim figure
And all your brooding look
And your laugh, both sad and sonorous,
Sounds in my heart since then.
In the hours of lonely nights
I love to lie down tired -
And I dream of the sad eyes,
I hear the cheerful speech.
And sadly I fall asleep
And I sleep in vague dreams ...
Do I love you - I don't know
But it seems to me that I do!

ORIGINAL LYRICS IN RUSSIAN:
Средь шумного бала, случайно,
В тревоге мирской суеты,
Тебя я увидел, но тайна
Твои покрывала черты.
Лишь очи печально глядели,
А голос так дивно звучал,
Как звон отдаленной свирели,
Как моря играющий вал.
Мне стан твой понравился тонкий
И весь твой задумчивый вид,
А смех твой, и грустный и звонкий,
С тех пор в моем сердце звучит.
В часы одинокие ночи
Люблю я, усталый, прилечь —
Я вижу печальные очи,
Я слышу веселую речь;
И грустно я так засыпаю,
И в грезах неведомых сплю…
Люблю ли тебя — я не знаю,
Но кажется мне, что люблю!
