by Mikhail Yur'yevich Lermontov (1814 - 1841)
Čerkešenka
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ja videl vas: cholmy i nivy, Raznoobraznych gor kusty, Prirody dikoj krasoty, Stepej gluchich narod sčastlivyj I nravy tichoj prostoty! No tam, gde Terek protekaet, Čerkešenku ja uvidal, - Vzor devy serdce prikoval; I mysl' nevol'no uletaet Brodit' sred' milych, dal'nich skal... Tak duch raskajanija, zvuki Poslyšav rajskie, letit Uzret' eščë nebesnyj vid; Tak ston ljubvi, strastej i muki Do groba v pamjati zvučit.
