Na zare
Language: Russian (Русский)
Zarevom zakata dal' nebes ob"jata, Rečka golubaja bleščet, kak v ogne; Nežnymi cvetami ubrany bogato, Tučki utopajut v jasnoj vyšine. Koe-gde, mercaja blednymi lučami, Zvezdočki-šalun'i v nebesach gorjat. Les, oblityj svetom, ne drognet vetvjami, I v večernej nege mirno nivy spjat. Tol'ko ty ne znaeš' negi i pokoja, Grud' moja bol'naja, polnaja toskoj. Čto ž tebja volnuet? Grustnoe l' byloe, Il' nadežd razbitych bezotradnyj roj? Zapolzli l' zmeeju zlobnye somnen'ja, Otravili veru v sčast'e i ljudej, Strasti li mjatežnoj grezy i volnen'ja Vspychnuli neždanno v glubine tvoej? Il', v bor'be s sud'boju pogubivši sily, Ty už tjagotiš'sja ėtoju bor'boj I, zabyv nadeždy, mračno ždeš' mogily, S malodušnoj grust'ju, s želčnoju toskoj? Polno, uspokojsja, sbros' pečali bremja: Ne projdet besplodno tjažkaja bor'ba, I zareju jasnoj zapylaet vremja, Vremja svetloj mysli, pravdy i truda.
