O, Bozhe, kak khorosh prokhladnyj vecher leta
Language: Russian (Русский)
O, Bozhe, kak khorosh prokhladnyj vecher leta,
Kakaja tishina!
Vsju noch' ja prosidet' gotov by do rassveta
U `etogo okna.
Kakoj-to temnyj lik mel'kajet po alleje,
I vozdukh nedvizhim,
I kazhetsja, chto tam jeshche, jeshche temneje
Za sadom molodym.
Uzh pozdno... Vse sil'nej cvetov blagoukhan'e,
Sejchas vzojdet luna...
Na nebesakh pokoj, i na zemle molchan'e,
I vsjudu tishina.
Davno li v `etot sad v chudesnyj vecher maja
Vkhodili my vdvojem?
O, skol'ko, skol'ko raz jego my, ne smolkaja,
Byvalo, obojdem!
I vot ja zdes' odin, s izmuchennoj, ustaloj,
Razbitoju dushoj.
Mne khochetsja rydat', pripavshi, kak byvalo,
K grudi tvojej rodnoj...
Ja zhdu... no ne slykhat' znakomogo priveta,
Dusha bolit odna...
O, Bozhe, kak khorosh prokhladnyj vecher leta,
Kakaja tishina!
