I Loved You Poem by Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin

I Loved You

Rating: 4.0


I loved you, and I probably still do,
And for a while the feeling may remain...
But let my love no longer trouble you,
I do not wish to cause you any pain.
I loved you; and the hopelessness I knew,
The jealousy, the shyness - though in vain -
Made up a love so tender and so true
As may God grant you to be loved again.


Translated by Genia Gurarie, 11/10/95

I loved you once, perhaps that love has yet, to die down thoroughly within my soul; but let it not dismay you any longer, I have no wish to cause you any sorrow. I loved you wordlessly, without a hope, by shyness tortured, or by jealousy, I loved you tenderness and candor, and pray God grants you to be loved that way again. this is another verson i have seen
