* * *Коробка почтовая есть в нашем классе,Раскрашена празднично в жёлтый и красный.Прорезью сверху рассечена,Для валентинок нам служит она!Открыв её утром, мы все волновались:«Вдруг, всем написали, а мне не досталось?»Нежданно-негаданно – ЕСТЬ ДЛЯ МЕНЯ!Одна валентинка – как счастлива я!И вот, школьный день уж подходит к концу –В руках их так много, я еле держу!

William Shakespear

Sonnet 130My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;Coral is far more red than her lips' red;If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.I have seen roses damask'd, red and white,But no such roses see I in her cheeks; And in some perfumes is there more delightThan in the breath that from my mistress reeks.I love to hear her speak, yet well I knowThat music hath a far more pleasing sound;I grant I never saw a goddess go;My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground:   And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare   As any she belied with false compare.

You are my sunshineТы моё солнцеОднажды ночью, дорогая, во снеПредставлял я тебя в моих объятьях.Проснулся – понял: это всё лишь снилось мнеИ я заплакал, томясь в воспоминаниях.Ты моё солнце, прекрасное солнцеЯ счастлив с тобой, когда хмурое небо.Ты не представишь любовь в моём сердцеНе отнимай её, взамен хоть что потребуй.Я любить тебя вечно буду и делать тебя счастливой.Прошу тебя, милая, взаимностью ответь мне!Но если ты уйти захочешь, вдруг, другого быть любимойСпустя месяцы и годы придется пожалеть тебе.Ты моё солнце, прекрасное солнцеЯ счастлив с тобой, когда хмурое небо.Ты не представишь любовь в моём сердцеНе отнимай её, взамен хоть что потребуй.
