Ėpitafija
Language: Russian (Русский)
Zolotomu blesku veril, A umer ot solnečnych strel. Dumoj veka izmeril, A žizn' prožit' ne sumel. Ne smejtes' nad mertvym poėtom: Snesite emu cvetok. Na kreste i zimoj i letom Moj farforovyj b'ëtsja venok. Cvety na nëm pobity. Obrazok polinjal. Tjažëlye plity. Ždu, čtob ich kto-nibud' snjal. Ljubil tol'ko zvon kolokol'nyj I zakat. Otčego mne tak bol'no, bol'no! JA ne vinovat. Požalejte, pridite; Navstreču venkom metnus'. O, ljubite menja, poljubite - Ja, byt' možet, ne umer, byt' možet, prosnus' - Vernus'!
