Kosnojazychno slavivshij menja
Language: Russian (Русский)
Kosnojazychno slavivshij menja Jeshche toptalsja na kraju `estrady. Ot dyma sizogo i tusklogo ognja My vse ujti, konechno, byli rady. No v putanykh slovakh vopros zazhzhen, Zachem ne stala ja zvezdoj ljubovnoj, I stydnoj bol'ju byl preobrazhen Nad nami lik zhestokij i beskrovnyj. Ljubi menja, pripominaj i plach'! Vse plachushchije ne ravny l' pred Bogom? Proshchaj, proshchaj! menja vedet palach Po golubym predutrennim dorogam.
