№ 1. Устало все кругомъ [All around has grown weary]
Устало все кругомъ: усталъ и цвѣтъ небесъ,
и вѣтеръ, и рѣка, и мѣсяцъ, что родился,
и ночь, и възелени потухшей спящійи лѣсъ,
и желтый тотъ листокъ, что наконецъ свалился…
—Afnasy Fet (1820‒1892) [German lyrics by Lina Esbeer]
№ 2. Они любили друг друга [They loved each other]
Они любили друг друга так долго и нежно,
С тоской глубокою и страстью безумно-мятежной!
Но, как враги, избегали признанья и встречи,
И были пусты и хладны их краткие речи…
—Mikhail Lermontov (1814‒1841) [German lyrics by Lina Esbeer]
