by Dmitry Sergeyevich Merezhkovsky (1865 - 1941)

Uspokoenny'e
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Uspokoenny'e Teni, 
Te, chto lyubyashhimi by'li, 
Brodyat zhalobnoj tolpoj 
Tam, gde volny' polny' leni, 
Tam, nad urnoj mertvoj py'li, 
Tam, nad Letoj grobovoj. 

Uspokoenny'e Tuchi, 
Te, chto dnem, v dy'xan`i buri, 
By'li mrakom i ognem, - 
Tam, vdali, gde les dremuchij, 
Spyat v bezzhiznennoj lazuri 
V slabom otbleske nochnom. 

Uspokoenny'e Dumy', 
Te, chto prezhde by'li strast`yu, 
Vozmushhen`em i bor`boj, - 
Stali krotki i ugryumy', 
Ne stremyatsya bol`she k schast`yu, 
Polny' mertvoj tishinoj.
