Moj um podavlen by'l toskoj, Moi glaza bez slyoz goreli... Nad ozerom spletalis` eli, Chernel kamy'sh, -- skvozili shheli Iz mraka k svetu nad vodoj. I mnogo, mnogo zvyozd merczalo... No v serdce mne nochnaya mgla Xolodnoj drozh`yu pronikala, Mne videlos` tak malo, malo Luchej lyubvi nad bezdnoj zla!
