by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)

Pogaslo dnevnoe svetilo
Language: Russian (Русский) 
  Pogaslo dnevnoe svetilo;
Na more sinee vechernij pal tuman.
  Shumi, shumi, poslushnoe vetrilo,
Volnujsya podo mnoj, ugryumy'j okean.
  YA vizhu bereg otdalenny'j,
Zemli poludennoj volshebny'e kraya;
[S volnen`em i toskoj tuda stremlyusya ya]1,
  Vospominan`em upoenny'j...
[I]2 chuvstvuyu: v ochax rodilis` slyozy' vnov`;
  [Dusha]3 kipit i zamiraet;
Mechta znakomaya vokrug menya letaet;
YA vspomnil prezhnix let bezumnuyu lyubov`,
I vsyo, chem ya stradal, i vsyo, chto serdczu milo,
Zhelanij i nadezhd tomitel`ny'j obman...
  Shumi, shumi, poslushnoe vetrilo,
Volnujsya podo mnoj, ugryumy'j okean.
[Leti, korabl`, nesi menya k predelam dal`ny'm]4
Po groznoj prixsti obmanchivy'x morej,
  No tolko ne k bregam pechal`ny'm
  Tumannoj rodiny' moej,
  Strany', gde plamenem strastej
  Vpervy'e chuvstva razgoralis`,
Gde muzy' nezhny'e mne tajno uly'balis`,
  Gde rano v buryax otczvela
  Moya poteryankaya mladost`,
Gde legkokry'laya mne izmenila radost`
I serdce xladnoe stradan`yu predala.
  Iskatel` novy'x vpechatlenij,
  YA vas bezhal, otecheski kraya;
  YA vas bezhal, pitomcy' naslazhdenij,
Minutnoj mladosti minutny'e druz`ya;
I vy', napersnicy' porochny'x zabluzhdenij,
Kotory'm bez lyubvi ya zhertvoval soboj,
Pokoem, slavoyu, svobodoj i dushoj,
I vy' zaby'ty' mnoj, izmennicy' mlady'e,
Podrugi tajny'e moej vesny' zlaty'ya,
I vy' zaby'ty' mnoj... No prezhnix serdcza ran,
Glubokix ran lyubvi, nichto ne izlechilo...
  Shumi, shumi, poslushnoe vetrilo,
Volnujsya podo mnoj, ugryumy'j okean...
