by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)

Czvetok zasoxshij, bezuxanny'j
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Our translations:  CHI ENG
Czvetok zasoxshij, bezuxanny'j,
Zaby'ty'j v knige vizhu ya,
I vot uzhe mechtoyu strannoj
Dusha napolnilas` moya.

Gde czvel, kogda, kakoj vesnoyu?
I dolgo l` czvel, i sorvan kem?
Chuzhoj, znakomoj li rukoyu?
I polozhen syuda zachem?

Na pamyat` nezhnogo l` svidan`ya
Ili razluki rokovoj,
Il` odinokogo gulyan`ya
V tishi polej, v teni lesnoj?

I zhiv li tot, i ta zhiva li?
[I gde ix ny'nche]1 ugolok?
Ili [uzhe oni]2 uvyali,
Kak sej nevedomy'j czvetok?
