Lyubya kolos`ev myagkij shorox
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Our translations:  ENG
Lyubya kolos`ev myagkij shorox 
  I yasnuyu lazur`,
YA ne lyubil, lyubuyas` nivoj, 
  Ni tyomny'x tuch, ni bur`.

No naletela tucha s gradom, 
  Shumit-gremit vo mgle;
I ya s kolos`yami, kak kolos, 
  Pribit k sy'roj zemle...

K sy'roj zemle pribit -- i sty'nu, 
  Xolodny'j i nemoj,
I uzh ne vsyo l` ravno mne - solnce 
  Il` tucha nado mnoj?!
