Translation by Vyacheslav Ivanovich Ivanov (1866 - 1949)
Srok nastanet
Language: Russian (Русский) after the Aeolic Greek
Srok nastanet: v zemle Budesh' lezhat', Laskovoj pamjati Ne ostavja v serdcakh. Tshchetno zhivesh'! Rozy Pijerii Len' tebe sobirat', S khorom podrug. Tak i sojdesh' v Aid, Ten' bez lika, v tolpe Smutnykh tenej, Stertykh zabvenijem.
