by Mikhail Yur'yevich Lermontov (1814 - 1841)

Son
Language: Russian (Русский) 
V poldnevnyj zhar v doline Dagestana
S svincom v grudi lezhal nedvizhim ja;
Glubokaja jeshchjo dymilas' rana;
Po kaple krov' tochilasja moja.

Lezhal odin ja na peske doliny;
Ustupy skal tesnilisja krugom,
I solnce zhglo ikh zhjoltye vershiny
I zhglo menja, no spal ja mjortvym snom.

I snilsja mne snjajushchij ognjami
Vechernij pir, v rodimoj storone.
Mezh junykh zhjon, uvenchannykh cvetami,
Shjol razgovor vesjolyj obo mne.

No v razgovor vesjolyj ne vstupaja,
Sidela tam zadumchivo odna,
I v grustnyj son dusha jejo mladaja
Bog znajet chem byla pogruzhena;

I snilas' jej dolina Dagestana;
Znakomyj trup lezhal v doline toj;
V jego grudi dymjas' chernela rana,
I krov' lilas' khladejushchej strujej.
