by Ivan Alekseyevich Bunin (1870 - 1953)
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ночь печальна, как мечты мои... Далеко, в глухой степи широкой, Огонек мерцает одинокий... В сердце много грусти и любви. Но кому и как разскажешь ты, Что зовёт тебя, чем сердце полно? Путь далек, глухая степь безмолвна, Ночь печальна, как мои мечты.
