by Konstantin Dmitrevich Bal'mont (1867 - 1942)

Анютины глазки
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Анютины глазки,
Жасмин, маргаритки,
Вы – буквы на свитке
Поблекнувшей сказки.

Вы где-то дышали,
Кому-то светили,
Без слёз, без печали,
Вы жили, вы были.

И вот чрез мечтанья,
Воздушны и зыбки,
Вы шлёте сиянья,
Дарите улыбки.

Вы шлёте мне ласки,
В бессмертном избытке,
Жасмин, маргаритки,
Анютины глазки.
