Милые Папаша и Мамаша
Я очень был рад, когда получил от вас письмо. Но когда узнал о болезни Сашинькиной то меня это очень испугало. Но слава Богу я и Коля здоровы, извините меня Мамашинька и милый Папашенька что я так долго к вам не писал. Прощайте милые родители, прошу вашего благословления. Ваш сын, П. Чайковский |
I was very glad when I received a letter from you [2]. However, when I found out about Sashinka's illness I was very frightened. But thanks be to God, Kolya and I are well. Forgive me, Mamashinka and dear Papashenka, for not having written to you so long. Goodbye, dear parents, I ask for your blessing. Your son, P. Tchaikovsky |
