К портрету Жуковского
Language: Russian (Русский)
Его стихов пленительная сладость Пройдёт веков завистливую даль, И, внемля им, вздохнет о славе младость, Утешится безмолвная печаль, И резвая задумается радость.

Under a portrait of Jukowsky
Language: English after the Russian (Русский)
The charm and sweetness of his magic verse Will mock the envious years for centuries! Since youth, on hearing them, for glory burns, The wordless sorrow comfort in them sees, And careless joy to wistful musing turns.
