Language: Russian (Русский)  after the French (Français)
Kamin mercajushchij, ot lampy svet lenivyj, Chelo sklonennoje pod dumoj molchalivoj. Zakrytye toma, shum, smekh, vechernij chaj I v glubine ochej prekrasnykh svetlyj raj!.. Istoma legkaja i radost' ozhidan'ja... — I v tishine nochnoj vostorgi i lobzan'ja!.. O milyj, nezhnyj son, povsjudu ty so mnoj, Pust' mimo dni polzut, ty vernyj sputnik moj!
