by Anna Andreyevna Akhmatova (1889 - 1966)

Ot lyubvi tvoej zagadochnoj
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ot lyubvi tvoej zagadochnoj,
Kak ot boli, v krik krichu,
Stala zheltoj i pripadochnoj,
Ele nogi volochu.

Novy'x pesen ne nasvisty'vaj,
Pesnej dolgo l` obmanut`,
No kogti, kogti neistovej
Mne chaxotochnuyu grud`,

Chtoby' krov` iz gorla xly'nula
Poskoree na postel`,
Chtoby' smert` iz serdcza vy'nula
Navsegda proklyaty'j xmel`.
