Zimneje utro
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Our translations:  CHI FRE
Moroz i solnce; den' chudesnyj!
Jeshche ty dremlesh', drug prelestnyj -
Pora, krasavica, prosnis':
Otkroj somknuty negoj vzory
Navstrechu severnoj Avrory,
Zvezdoju severa javis'!

Vechor, ty pomnish', v'juga zlilas',
Na mutnom nebe mgla nosilas';
Luna, kak blednoje pjatno,
Skvoz' tuchi mrachnye zheltela,
I ty pechal'naja sidela -
A nynche... pogljadi v okno:

Pod golubymi nebesami
Velikolepnymi kovrami,
Blestja na solnce, sneg lezhit;
Prozrachnyj les odin chernejet,
I jel' skvoz' inej zelenejet,
I rechka podo l'dom blestit.

Vsja komnata jantarnym bleskom
Ozarena. Veselym treskom
Treshchit zatoplennaja pech'.
Prijatno dumat' u lezhanki.
No znajesh': ne velet' li v sanki
Kobylku buruju zaprech'?

Skol'zja po utrennemu snegu,
Drug milyj, predadimsja begu
Neterpelivogo konja
I navestim polja pustye,
Lesa, nedavno stol' gustye,
I bereg, milyj dlja menja.
