Текст песни Валерий Брюсов - За тонкой стеной

Behind a thin wall stood a piano,
The talk was noisier and louder than ever.
To me you entered, good, like sadness,
I went in, lifted my tired eyes ...
A grand piano was sobbing behind a thin wall.

I understood without words the golden confession,
And you guessed the silent answer ...
Trembling hands entwined without consciousness,
Iridescent light sparkled through tears,
And these lights replaced confessions.

Impotent, weak-willed - face at face -
We gave some dreams to each other,
According to and heard the heart beatings, -
And there, behind the wall, voices were heard,
And the sounds of the piano grew endlessly.
