by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)
Pred ispankoj blagorodnoj
Language: Russian (Русский)
Pred ispankoj blagorodnoj dvoje rycarej stojat. Oba smelo i svobodno v ochi prjamo jej gljadjat. Bleshut oba krasotoju, oba serdcem gorjachi, oba moshchnoju rukoju operlisja na mechi. Zhizni im ona dorozhe, i, kak slava, im mila; No odin jej mil - kogo zhe deva serdcem izbrala? ,,Kto, reshi, ljubim toboju?`` oba deve govorjat I s nadezhdoj molodoju v ochi prjamo jej gljadjat.
