Epicedium
Language: Russian (Русский)
Vse tože nebo, taž vesna, čudesnoj junosti polna, vse teže dumy u ljudej, liš' novaja v duše moej dosel' mne čuždaja pečal'... I plakat' chočetsja i žal' trevožit' voplem v mirnyj den' moju vozljublennuju ten'. JA budu plakat' pro sebja, i na cholodnogo tebja pol'jutsja plamennyja slëzy, kak na listki uvjadšej rozy naprasno padaet rosa No teplaja moja sleza v cholodnom sumrake mogily ne vozmutit tebja, moj milyj!
