by Fyodor Ivanovich Tyutchev (1803 - 1873)
О, вещая душа моя
Language: Russian (Русский)
О, вещая душа моя! О сердце, полное тревоги, О, как ты бьёшься на пороге Как бы двойного бытия! ... Так, ты жилица двух миров, Твой день - болезненный и страстный, Твой сон - пророчески-неясный, Как откровение духов... Пускай страдальческую грудь Волнуют страсти роковые - Душа готова, как Мария, К ногам Христа навек прильнуть.
