Otcy' pusty'nniki i zhyony' neporochny'
Language: Russian (Русский)
Otcy' pusty'nniki i zhyony' neporochny', Chtob serdcem vozletat` vo oblasti zaochny', Chtob ukreplyat` ego sred` dol`nix bur` i bitv, Slozhili mnozhestvo bozhestvenny'x molitv; No ni odna iz nix menya ne umilyaet, Kak ta, kotoruyu svyashhennik povtoryaet Vo dni pechal`ny'e Velikogo posta; Vsex chashhe mne ona prixodit na usta I padshego krepit nevedomoyu siloj: Vlady'ko dnej moix! dux prazdnosti uny'loj, Lyubonachaliya, zmei sokry'toj sej, I prazdnosloviya ne daj dushe moej. No daj mne zret` moi, o bozhe, pregreshen`ya, Da brat moj ot menya ne primet osuzhden`ya, I dux smireniya, terpeniya, lyubvi I celomudriya mne v serdce ozhivi.
