V gluši na počve raskalënnoj
Language: Russian (Русский)
V gluši na počve raskalënnoj Berëza staraja stoit; V eë veršine obnažënnoj Zelënyj list ne šelestit. Krugom, slivajas' s nebesami, Poluodetymi v tuman, Pestreet čudnymi cvetami Volnistoj stepi okean. Kurgany jarko zelenejut, Rosu prinosjat večera, Prochladoj tichoj noči vejut, I pyšet zarevom zarja. No bezzaščitnaja berëza Gljadit s toskoj na nebesa, I na vetvjach eë, kak slëzy, Sverkaet čistaja rosa; Dalëko bureju surovoj Eë listy razneseny, I net dlja nej odeždy novoj I blagodetel'noj vesny.
