Mne ne spitsya, net ognya;

Mne ne spitsya, net ognya;
Vsyudu mrak i son dokuchny'j.
Xod chasov lish` odnozvuchny'j
Razdayotsya bliz menya.
Parki bab`e lepetan`e,
Spyashhej nochi trepetan`e,
Zhizni my'sh`ya begotnya...
Chto trevozhish` ty' menya?
Chto ty' znachish`, skuchny'j shopot?
Ukorizna, ili ropot
Mnoj utrachennogo dnya?
Ot menya chego ty' xochesh`?
Ty' zovyosh` ili prorochish`?
YA ponyat` tebya xochu,
Smy'sla ya v tebe ishhu...
