English translation By Brett Langston |
| Толя! Ты получишь мой портрет по прилагаемой квитанции на Николаевской железной дороге. Очень боюсь, что он не в целости до тебя доедет, хотя уложен превосходно. Что же ты не приехал на первой неделе ли отчего не написал? Я тебя ожидал ежедневно. Крепко целую и жду письма.
П. Чайковский |
Tolya! You can receive my portrait using the attached receipt at Nikolayevsky railway station [1]. I'm very much afraid that it won't reach you intact, although it has been excellently packaged. Why haven't you come or written during the first week? [2] I've been expecting you every day. I kiss you hard and wait for a letter.
P. Tchaikovsky |
