by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)

Okno
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Gde mir, odnoj mechte poslushnyj?
Mne nastojashchij opustel.
Na vse v ziraju ravnodushno,
dyshat' unyn'em moj udel.

Naprasno letneju poroju
ljubovnik roshchic i lugov
kolyshit rozoj polevoju,
letja s tenistykh beregov.

Naprasno pozdnjaja zarnica
mercajet v temnote nochnoj,
i v zybkikh oblakakh dennica
razlita plamennoj rekoj.

Il' den' bagrjanyj vecherejet
i tikho tusknet neba svod,
i kljon na mesjace belejet,
sklonjas' na bereg sinikh vod.

Vchera vechernej temnotoju,
kogda pustychnaja luna
tekla tumannoju stezeju,
ja videl: deva u okna.

Odna zadumchivo sidela,
dyshala v tajnom strakhe grud',
ona s volnenijem gljadela,
na tjomnyj pod kholmami put'.

,,Ja zdes'`` shepnuli toroplivo,
i deva trepetnoj rukoj
okno otkryla bojazlivo.
Odelsja mesjac temnotoj.

,,Schastlivec`` molvil ja s toskoju,
,,tebja vesel'e zhdjot odno.
Kogda zh vecherneju poroju
i mne otkrojetsja okno?``
