Sumrak tichij, sumrak tajnyj
Language: Russian (Русский)
Sumrak tichij, sumrak tajnyj, Drug, davno znakomyj mne, Beznačal'nyj i beskrajnyj, Prizrak, zybljuščij tumany, Vyšel v les i na poljany, Čto-to šepčet tišine. Ne slova l' molitvy staroj, Drevnej, kak sama zemlja? I opjat', pod večnoj čaroj, Stali prizračnoj chimeroj Skudnyj log, orešnik seryj, Zašossejnye polja. [Davnij]1, večnyj son stoletij, V svete zvëzd, opjat' voznik: I vsja žizn' — liš' vetvi ėti Mir — kločok rosistyj luga, Gde usta našli drug druga, Večnost' — ėtot tëmnyj mig!
