"Есть в мире много пожеланий"
Есть в мире много пожеланий,
Их всех не перечесть.
Тебя я просто поздравляю,
Люблю такой, какая есть.
Будь все время красивой:
И душой и собой.
Будь все время любимой:
И зимой, и весной.
Не склоняйся рябиной,
Если будет беда.
Будь все время счастливой -
В этот день и всегда.
"The Passionate Shepherd To His Love"
The Passionate Shepherd To His Love
Come live with me and be my love,
And we will all the pleasures prove
That valleys, groves, hills, and fields,
Woods, or steepy mountain yields.
And we will sit upon the rocks,
Seeing the shepherds feed their flocks,
By shallow rivers to whose falls
Melodious birds sing madrigals.
And I will make thee beds of roses
And a thousand fragrant posies,
A cap of flowers, and a kirtle
Embroidered all with leaves of myrtle
A gown made of the finest wool,
Which from our pretty lambs we pull;
Fair lined slippers for the cold,
With buckles of the purest gold:
A belt of straw and ivy buds,
With coral clasps and amber studs;
And if these pleasures may thee move,
Come live with me and be my love.
The shepherd swains shall dance and sing
For thy delight each May morning;
If these delights thy mind may move,
Then live with me and be my love.
Christopher Marlowe
"There's Richness in a Love for Life"
There's Richness in a Love for Life
There's richness in a love for life
Here among the valentines,
A king and queen as man and wife:
Not leaning towards what lust inclines;
Knowing well the needs of state
Yon regal grace alone attends,
On which the peace, both small and great,
Undone by doubt, alone depends.
"This Day of Love I Take a Vow"
This Day of Love I Take a Vow
This day of love I take a vow
To love you well through all the days
Of long and labyrinthine ways:
But I would love you anyhow.
These words bespeak my unbent will
To love despite the passing pain,
Anger, lust, fear, silence, shame:
But without words I'd love you still.
A vow of love's the final seal
Upon an edict fully writ,
Not altering the sense of it,
Nor adding to the love we feel;
Or like an oarsman worth his weight
Upon a current swift and strong
That bears the fragile boat along
To where it meets its cherished fate.
So why a vow on Valentine?
Like any vow, to bind me to
Whatever I am bound to do:
Words that ride the wordless wind.
"Люби!"
Люби! Когда и гpyстно, и смешно.
Люби! Когда не любят, все pавно.
Люби! Хоть и любимым не зовyт.
Люби! Любовь твою поймyт.
Люби! Своемy сеpдцy пpикажи.
Люби! Своей любовью доpожи.
Люби! Когда кpyгом добpо и зло.
Люби! И быть иначе не должно!
"You Are My Heart, My Hope, My Help"
You Are My Heart, My Hope, My Help
You are my heart, my hope, my help,
The passion that is me,
The whole of which I am a part,
My peace, my ecstasy.
You are my future, present, past,
My ship, my sail, my ocean,
The wind that brings me home again,
The home for every motion.
You live within me, yet I am
Without you all alone.
With you I am full of light;
Without you I am stone.
Is this foolish? Yes, perhaps,
But also it is true.
I think of life as something I
Can spend with only you.
Ah, my love! Love longs for such
Sweet celebrants as this!
Love is a burden and a joy,
Slavery and bliss.
This day of love come love with me,
Come sing with me my song.
Come be my Valentine, and I
Will love you my life long, my love,
Will love you my life long.
"Поздравляю с Днем влюбленных"
Поздравляю с Днем влюбленных,
Упоенных, озаренных
Чувствами прекрасными,
Самыми всевластными.
Дай вам Бог не расставаться,
Вечным счастьем наслаждаться!
"У сей истории путь длинный."
У сей истории путь длинный.
Давно то было. Древний Рим.
Рука Святого Валентина
Любовь тайком несла двоим.
Он отношения влюбленных
Обрядом в церкви освящал.
Переступив черту закона,
Сам от доноса пострадал.
Хотя февральскою порою
Духовный пастырь был казнён,
Навеки имя золотое
Осталось средь святых имён.
Когда последние снежинки,
Кружа, рисуют миражи,
Мы посылаем Валентинки
Тем, чьей любовью дорожим!
"Is it really love?"
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?
"Valentine's Day is a day of love"
Valentine's Day is a day of love
Where love is as bright as the sun
We share kisses, and even a hug
With people we call our loved ones
Unrequited love is oh! so harsh
When the one you love doesn't love you
You feel you're left standing in the dark
Wishing this reality were untrue
Well that's why Valentine's Day is so great
It encourages you to show you care
It makes you just wanna say
I love you and will always be there
I once loved someone in this way
And I was encouraged on Valentine's
I went up to him, just to say
I would like you to be mine
