Zaveshhanie
Language: Russian (Русский)
Est` mesto: bliz tropy' gluxoj, V lesu pusty'nnom, sred` polyany', Gde v`yutsya vecherom tumany', Oserebrenny'e lunoj... Moj drug! ty' znaesh` tu polyanu, Tam trup moj xladny'j ty' zaroj, Kogda dy'shat` ya perestanu! Mogile toj ne otkazhi Ni v chem, posleduya zakonu: Postav` nad neyu krest iz klyonu I dikij kamen` polozhi. Kogda groza tot les vstrevozhit, Moj krest prishel`cza privlechyot I dobry'j chelovek, by't` mozhet, Na dikom kamne otdoxnyot.
