by Vyacheslav Ivanovich Ivanov (1866 - 1949)

Triton
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Dvustvorku na khvostakh klubok del'finij
Razverstoj vynes; v nej rastet Triton,
Trubit v ulitu; no ne zychnyj ton,
Struja luchom pronzajet vozdukh sinij.

Sred' znoja plit, zovushchikh oblak pinij,
Kak zelen mkha na demone khiton!
S prirodoj skhozh rezca starinnyj son
Stikhijnoju prichudlivost'ju linij.

Bernini, — snova nash, — tvojej igroj
Ja veseljus', ot Chetyrekh Fontanov
Bredja na Pinch'o pamjatnoj goroj,

Gde v kel'ju Gogolja vkhodil Ivanov,
Gde Piranezi ognennoj igloj
Pel Rima grust' i zodchestvo Titanov.
