by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)

Что в имени тебе моём?

Что в имени тебе моём?
Оно умрёт, как шум печальный
Волны, плеснувшей в берег дальний,
Как звук ночной в лесу глухом.

Оно на памятном листке
Оставит мёртвый след, подобный
Узору надписи надгробной
На непонятном языке.

Что в нём? Забытое давно
В волненьях новых и мятежных,
Твоей душе не даст оно
Воспоминаний чистых нежных.

Но в день печали, в тишине,
Произнеси его тоскуя;
Скажи: есть память обо мне,
Есть в мире сердце, где живу я...
