by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)

Воспоминание
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Когда для смертного умолкнет шумный день,
  И на немые стогны града
Полупрозрачная наляжет ночи тень
  И сон, дневных трудов награда,
В то время для меня влачатся в тишине
  Часы томительного б денья:
В бездействии ночном живей горят во мне
  Змеи сердечной угрызенья;
Мечты кипят; в уме, подавленном тоской,
  Теснится тяжких дум избыток,
Воспоминание без молвно предо мной
  Свой длинный развивает свиток;
И с отвращением читая жизнь мою,
  Я трепещу, и проклинаю,
И горько жалуюсь, и горько слёзы лью,
  Но строк печальных не смываю.
