The full lyrics:
Очи чёрныя, очи страстныя,
Очи жгучія и прекрасныя!
Какъ люблю я васъ, какъ боюсь я васъ!
Знать, увидѣлъ васъ я въ недобрый часъ!
Охъ, недаромъ вы глубины темнѣй!
Вижу трауръ въ васъ по душѣ моей,
Вижу пламя въ васъ я побѣдное:
Сожжено на нёмъ сердце бѣдное.
Но не грустенъ я, не печаленъ я,
Утѣшительна мнѣ судьба моя:
Все, что лучшаго въ жизни Богъ далъ намъ,
Въ жертву отдалъ я огневымъ глазамъ!
(The lyrics is in Public Domain now: the original poem was published more than 180 years ago.)
