Как много девушек хороших, Как много ласковых имён, Но лишь одна из них тревожит, Унося покой и сон, Когда влюблён. |
There are so many nice and pretty girls There are so many tender names But only one excites you so much Taking calm and sleep away When you’re in love |
Любовь нечаянно нагрянет, Когда её совсем не ждёшь, И каждый вечер сразу станет Удивительно хорош. И ты поёшь. |
Love strikes you up by chance and all at once When you the least expect it comes. And every evening is so beautiful And so exciting that You start to sing your song. |
Сердце, тебе не хочется покоя, |
My heart, you don’t want to have some peace My heart, it is so beautiful to live. My heart, it is so good that you are like that, Oh, thank you, my heart that you can love so much, so sweet. |
