I am sad - there is a reason

I am sad - there is a reason
And it did not arise by itself: The black-eyed
girl
Forever drove me crazy.

We did not walk on a dark night
And did not warm ourselves by the fire,
There were only lines in the letters
About thoughts until the morning.

She warmed me with her charm,
She took me captive with a tender look,
She managed to conquer me
In a second and left.

I was calm, indifferent,
I believed: I definitely fell out of love... I
became obedient in her arms...
I forgot about everything and everyone.

The colors of the world began to play...
How beautiful the sky is!..
Radiant ether
I have not seen for many years.

And again I am reckless,
And lost my mind,
And ready in hand-to-hand combat
To defend my ideal.

But, loving more strongly, I wish,
That you live happily,
I leave to another -
Fate brought us together too late.

I have a different path
And shorter with each day...
So shine, earthly love,
And burn, while we live.
