Проблеск света

Language: Russian (Русский) 
Our translations:  ENG
Чуть в расчистившиеся прорывы
Солнца луч улыбнётся земле,
Листья ивы средь дымки дождливой
Вспыхнут живописью на стекле.

Я увижу за зеленью моклой
Мирозданья  тайник изнутри,
Как в цветные церковные стёкла
Смотрят свечи, святые, цари.

Из глубин сокровенных природы
Разольётся поток голосов.
Я услышу летящий под своды
Гул и плеск дискантов и басов.

О живая загадка вселенной,
Я великую службу твою,
Потрясённый и с дрожью священной,
Сам не свой, весь в слезах отстою.
