by Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Blok (1880 - 1921)

Ya ne zval tebya — sama ty'
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ya ne zval tebya — sama ty'
     Podoshla.
Kazhdy'j vecher — zapax myaty',
Mesyacz uzkij i shherbaty'j,
     Tish` i mgla.

Slovno mesyacz vstal iz dalej,
     Ty' prishla
V tkani lyogkoj, bez sandalij.
Za plechami trepetali
     Dva kry'la.

Na trave, edva primyatoj,
     Lyogkij sled.
Svezhij zapax dikoj myaty',
Nezhivoj, golubovaty'j
     Nochi svet.

I zhivu s toboyu ryadom,
     Kak vo sne.
I zhivu pod bledny'm vzglyadom
     Dolgoj nochi,
Slovno mesyacz tam, nad sadom,
     Smotrit v ochi
     Tishine.
