Aleksandr Pushkin "Жизнь (Zhizn')" lyrics

Translation to:cselentr

Жизнь (Zhizn')

Дар напрасный, дар случайный,Жизнь, зачем ты мне дана?Иль зачем судьбою тайнойТы на казнь осуждена?

Кто меня враждебной властьюИз ничтожества воззвал,Душу мне наполнил страстью,Ум сомненьем взволновал?..

Цели нет передо мною:Сердце пусто, празден ум,И томит меня тоскоюОднозвучный жизни шум.

Life

A futile gift, a casual gift,Life, why were you given to me?Or rather, why are you condemned to punishmentBy a hidden fate?

Who -- what hostile power --Raised me up from nonexistence,Filled my soul with passion,And agitated my mind with doubts?

There are no goals before me:My heart is empty, my mind is vacuous,And life's monotonyTortures me with unfulfilled longing.
