# A. S. Pushkin. To Mary

Василий Иванович Панченко

... But more dear in a love Pretty Mary is a one.

A. S. Pushkin. To Mary


(After Barry Cornwell)


Here's a health to thee, Mary


Mary's health I toast more,

Dear Mary girl of mine.

Closed silently a door,

No gests with us to dine,

Mary's health I toast more.


There're many finer women,

That is Mary girl of mine,

This is little peri for men.

But more dear in a love

Pretty Mary is a one.


Happy days to you, nice Mary,

You're fair sun in my life!

Be no anguish and no dreary

No in abhorent no day

In thy life, o dear Mary.


1830
