by Mikhail Yur'yevich Lermontov (1814 - 1841)

Zhyolty'j list o stebel` b``yotsya
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Zhyolty'j list o stebel` b``yotsya
Pered burej: Serdce bednoe trepeshhet
Pred neschast`em.
Chto za vazhnost`, esli veter
Moj listok odinokoj
Uneset, uneset, uneset dalyoko...

Pozhaleet li ob nem Vetka siraya?
Zachem grustit` molodczu,
Esli rok sudil emu 
Ugasnut`, ugasnut`, ugasnut` v krayu chuzhom?
Pozhaleet li ob nem
Krasna devicza?
