(And he answers):

Without eyes and without mind,

Love flies without knowing itself,

Where and how. She, just like children,

It is easy to get into their own can network.

Tries make us afraid!

Well, if you stop loving - so now, Now that the whole world is in contention with me. Be the bitter of my losses, But not the last straw of grief! And if grief is given to overcome me, Do not strike from ambush. Let stormy night not be allowed Rainy in the morning - in the morning without joy. Leave me, but not at the last moment, When I am weakening from minor troubles. Leave now so that I immediately realize .

 

When you want, having cooled to me,

To betray me with mockery and contempt,

I will remain on your side

And I will not discredit your honor with a shadow.

Knowing each of my vices well,

I can tell such a story,

That I will forever remove your reproach, I

will justify my tarnished conscience.

And I will be grateful to fate:

May I fail in the struggle,

But I bring you the honor of victory

And twice I gain everything I spend.

I am ready to be a victim of wrong,

So that only you turn out to be right.

 

Your love, my friend, is more precious than treasure,

And at that moment I immediately become impoverished.

As people are not tricky, the time comes - and everything comes out to fresh water.

 

To justify me, do not force Your injustice and deceit. It’s better to conquer force by force, But do not inflict wounds on me by cunning. Love the other, but in the moments of meetings You do not take your eyelashes from me. Why should you trick? Your gaze is a blasting sword, And there is no armor on a loving chest. You yourself know the power of your eyes, And it may turn out that you look away, You are preparing to kill others, Sparing me out of mercy. Oh, do not spare! Let your direct gaze Kill me, I will be glad of death.

 

“Every obstacle to love only strengthens it and multiplies it”

 

Alas, love, although it is blind, without eyes will find which ways to reach us and rule over us!

 

Be as cold as ice and pure as snow - you still cannot escape slander.

 

Her eyes do not look like stars, You can’t call her mouth coral, Her shoulders are not snow-white, And a strand of black wire curls. With a damask rose, scarlet or white, You can not compare the shade of these cheeks. And the body smells like the body smells, Not like violets delicate petal. You will not find perfect lines in it, There is a special light on the forehead, I don’t know how the goddesses walk, But the sweet one walks on the ground. And yet she will yield to those hardly whom in the lush comparisons they lied.

 

Be able to understand what is said without sound.

Eyes to hear - this is love science. Translation A. Sharakshan

 

For appetite, seasoning spice.

We drink bitterness to avoid poison,

purposely arousing lightheadedness.

So, spoiled by your love,

I found joy in bitter thoughts

And invented ill health for myself

Even in the prime of life and vigor.

From this love insidiousness

those who are sick with infinite love.

neglecting yourself, you do not love anyone;

You will allow yourself to love others willingly,

But in vain to wait for love from your heart.

 

All lovers swear to fulfill more than they can, and do not fulfill even the possible.

 

Tears are a weapon of women.

 

And all the same, the eye draws only what he sees -

And the soul has no opportunity to know!

 

Like that actor who, having become fierce,

Loses the thread of a long familiar role,

Like that madman that, falling into anger,

Loses strength of will in excess of strength, -

 

Your tender garden is neglected because

you are accessible to everyone - and to nobody

 

Friend’s advice is the best support against enemies.

 

So I am silent, not knowing what to say,

Not because my heart has cooled.

No, my lips are stamped

My love, which has no limit.

 

Whoever was born happy under a star is

proud of glory, title and power.

And I have been awarded with a more modest fate,

And for me love is a source of happiness

Warlord, a spoiler of victories,

In the battle he is the last to lose,

And all his merits are lost,

His destiny is disgrace and oblivion.

But there is no threat to my titles for

life: loved, love, love

Reproach loneliness sound?

In a happy union sing.
