by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)

Arion
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Nas bylo mnogo na čelne:
Inye parus naprjagali,
Drugie družno upirali
V glub' moščny [vesly]1.

V tišine,
Na rul' sklonjas', naš kormiščik umnyj
V molčan'i pravil gruznyj čëln;
A ja bespečnoj very poln
Plovcam ja pel...

Vdrug lono voln
Izmjal s nalëtu vichor' šumnyj...
Pogib i kormščik i plovec!
Liš' ja, tainstvennyj pevec,
Na bereg vybrošen grozoju.
JA gimny prežnie poju,
I rizu vlažnuju moju
Sušu na solnce pod skaloju.
