Zakatilos` solnce, zaigrali kraski legkoj pozolotoj v sineve nebes... V obayan`e nochi sladostrastnoj laski tixo chto-to shepchet zadremavshij les... I v dushe trevozhnoj umolkayut muki i dy'shat` vsej grud`yu v e`tu noch` legko... Nochi divnoj teni, nochi divnoj zvuki nas s toboj unosyat, drug moj, daleko. Vsya ob``yata negoj e`toj nochi strastnoj, ty' ko mne sklonilas` na plecho glavoj... YA bezumno schastliv, o, moj drug prekrasny'j, beskonechno schastliv v e`tu noch` s toboj!
