В тёмной чаще замолк соловей,
прокатилась звезда в синеве;
месяц смотрит сквозь сетку ветвей,
зажигает росу на траве.

Дремлют розы. Прохлада плывет.
Кто-то свистнул... Вет замер и свист
Ухо слышит, едва, упадет 
Насекомым подточенный лист.

Как при месяце кроток и тих
у тебя милый очерк лица!
Эту ночь, полный грез золотых
я б продлил без конца, без конца!
