День святого Валентина. В 2025 году отмечают 14 Февраля.

Легенда стаpая жива,
И веpю, что неоспоpима.
Такая сказка нам нyжна,
Чтоб pаз в годy, в день Валентина,
Пpизнаться мог в любви тебе:
Тебя нет лyчше на Земле.

У всех приличий стоя на краю,-
Не вопреки ль житейским всем раскладам! -
Вы "потеряли" голову свою,
Верней - с моею положили рядом.
За Вами я последовать готов,
И не смутит ничуть дурная слава:
Но где б набраться собственных голов,
Чтоб их "терять" налево и направо?!

Each Day Your Smile Becomes My Morning Star
Each day your smile becomes my morning star.
I look at you and then my feelings shine.
From you I learn far more than words or numbers:
You're the book that someday will be mine.
You're the one whose love my love of learning
Will one day trace in its ancestral line.
For all the ways you help me grow towards beauty,
I ask you please to be my Valentine.

Happiness Is Not a Tended Rose
Happiness is not a tended rose
Amid the prescient beauty of a garden:
Perhaps one senses soon some gate may close;
Perhaps one senses soon the earth will harden.
Years come and go like waves upon a shore,
Violent or peaceful with the wind.
After one has given up on more,
Love waits within the heart, its passion thinned.
Even in a passage void of light,
Nether windings black with rage and grief,
There are waters sweet with lost delight
In which one finds a strong, serene belief.
No happiness can overcome life's pain
Except one love, and love give life again.

Я верю в колдовство любви,
В её таинственную силу,
И в день святого Валентина
Тебе шлю импульсы свои

В день святого Валентина
Я влюблен, а ты любима.
Как хотел бы я, чтобы ты
Мне призналась в любви.
Бедам всем придёт конец -
И пойдём мы под венец.

I Know I Hardly Know You
I know I hardly know you,
But I think that I may love you.
You can see the way I look at you
And know.
I know you have a girlfriend,
But I think we can be happy,
So take the time to find out
If it's so.
I know we don't have much time,
But I think it's just enough;
If you'd like to take a chance on me,
Let's go!

You my betters lovely friend-
This ia best from all the brand!
To the realized Your wishes
I will brake at home all dishes!
Ours love will pass all tests
It"s too early fo the rest!
You and me, we both together
Will be glad for any weather!
So, only one desire
Which I have - it"s be on tie
Just with You and this connection
From the damage has protection!
I am ready for solution
Give all kinds of contribution
To the ours strongest love,
You my pretty, You my dove!

Высоким чyвством окpыленный,
Когда-то в давние года
Пpидyмал кто-то день влюбленных,
Hикак не ведая тогда,
Что станет этот день любимым,
Желанным пpаздником в годy,
Что Днем святого Валентина
Его с почтеньем назовyт.
Улыбки и цветы повсюдy,
В любви пpизнанья вновь и вновь...
Так пyсть для всех свеpшится чyдо -
Пyсть миpом пpавит лишь любовь!

When I think of love ...
I think of roses and red hearts ...
quiet walks ...
and very soft, tranquil music ...
I envision an eagle taking flight on a crisp fall morn ...
the first snowflake in the winter ...
and the sound of the first robin in the spring ...
I envision a glorious sunrise ...
a spectacular rainbow ...
and stars brightly shining on a summer night ...
But most of all, I envision you ...
your eyes radiating warmth, joy and vibrance ...
and the tender feelings in my heart
from your friendly smile.

What's in a name ? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo called.
William Shakespeare

Is it really love?
or is it just a passing feeling
am I not convinced?
a bit uncertain of the feeling
Is it the way you make me feel?
so warm with joy and laughter
or could it be the happiness
from moments spent together
The lasting bliss, the kiss I miss,
The sweetest thoughts without a touch
The heart that hurts and bears a scar
thinking how far away you are
You’re on my mind most of the day
And at night I go to bed and pray
An angel soft and gentle as you
Would make my sweetest dreams come true
Thinking about you alone or in class
Writing your name on my bathroom window glass
Wishing you were here
To love hold and care
Wishing I had you with me
To cherish and to stare
Into your soft and beautiful eyes
As we both travel to the skies
And mingle with the stars above
But is it really love?

A Valentine Is Nothing Like
A Valentine is nothing like
A chocolate or a rose.
For in a week these shall be gone,
But Valentines remain.
If love were always sweet to tongue
Or fragrant to the nose,
Each day would be like Valentine's,
And we would go insane.
A Valentine just hangs around
Waiting to be kissed
Long after special days have passed
And every days are here.
So one is wise to choose one well
And chocolates to resist.
For in the midst of mania
It's nice to have one near.
