Sumrak tixij, sumrak tajny'j
Language: Russian (Русский)
Sumrak tixij, sumrak tajny'j, Drug, davno znakomy'j mne, Beznachal`ny'j i beskrajny'j, Prizrak, zy'blyushhij tumany', Vy'shel v les i na polyany', Chto-to shepchet tishine. Ne slova l` molitvy' staroj, Drevnej, kak sama zemlya? I opyat`, pod vechnoj charoj, Stali prizrachnoj ximeroj Skudny'j log, oreshnik sery'j, Zashossejny'e polya. [Davnij]1, vechny'j son stoletij, V svete zvyozd, opyat` voznik: I vsya zhizn` — lish` vetvi e`ti Mir — klochok rosisty'j luga, Gde usta nashli drug druga, Vechnost` — e`tot tyomny'j mig!
