Volshebnicza
Language: Russian (Русский)
Volshebnicza, skazhi, kakaya sila Vlechet menya k pokinuty'm strunam? Kakoj ogon` ty' v serdce zaronila, Kakoj vostorg razlilsya po perstam? Davno li ya, ubity'j, bezotradny'j V zhestokoj grusti tajno izny'val, Davno l` k tebe, beschuvstvenny'j i xladny'j, Tvoj chisty'j dar s prezren`em otvergal! Vdrug ves` volshebny'j mir voobrazhen`ya Otkry'lsya mne v prelestnejshix mechtax, I probudilas` zhazhda pesnopen`ya, I vspy'xnul ogn` na radostny'x strunax. V goryashhem serdce vy'my'sly' rodyatsya, I dumy' roem v`yutsya nado mnoj, Mel`knut, ischeznut, snova vkrug tolpyatsya… Zaby'to vse… son, radost` i pokoj!
Note: the poem is quoted by L. Tolstoy in War and Peace but it was not written by Tolstoy.
