by Mikhail Yur'yevich Lermontov (1814 - 1841)

Zhjoltyj list o stebel' b"jotsja
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Zhjoltyj list o stebel' b"jotsja
Pered burej: Serdce bednoje trepeshchet
Pred neschast'em.
Chto za vazhnost', jesli veter
Moj listok odinokoj
Uneset, uneset, uneset daljoko...

Pozhalejet li ob nem Vetka siraja?
Zachem grustit' molodcu,
Jesli rok sudil jemu 
Ugasnut', ugasnut', ugasnut' v kraju chuzhom?
Pozhalejet li ob nem
Krasna devica?
