by Ivan Savvich Nikitin (1824 - 1861)
Živaja reč', živye zvuki, —
Language: Russian (Русский)
Živaja reč', živye zvuki, — Začem vam čuždy plot' i krov'? JA v vas oblëk by serdca muki, Moju pečal', moju ljubov'. V grudi ogon', v duše smjaten'e I podavlennoj strasti ston, A vaše mernoe tečen'e Navodit skuku ili son… Tak, nedostupno i nezrimo, V nas zreet čuvstvo inogda, I ostaëtsja navsegda Zagadkoju nerazrešimoj, Kak mučenik, proživšij vek, Nam s detstva blizkij čelovek.
