by Apollon Nikolayevich Maykov (1821 - 1897)

На дальнем Севере моём
Language: Russian (Русский) 
На дальнем Севере моём
Я этот вечер не забуду.
Смотрели молча мы вдвоём
На ветви ив, прилегших к пруду;
Вдали синел лавровый лес
И олеандр блестел цветами;
Густого мирта был над нами
Непроницаемый навес;
Синели горные вершины;
Тумана в золотой пыли
Как будто плавали вдали
И акведуки, и руины…
При этом солнце огневом,
При шуме водного паденья,
Ты мне сказала в упоенье:
«Здесь можно умереть вдвоём…»
