by Yulya Valeryanovna Zhadovskaya (1824 - 1883)

Нива
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Нива, моя нива, 
Нива золотая! 
Зреешь ты на солнце, 
Колос наливая, 
По тебе от ветру, - 
Словно в синем море, - 
Волны так и ходят, 
Ходят на просторе. 
Над тобою с песней 
Жаворонок вьется; 
Над тобою и туча 
Грозно пронесется. 
Зреешь ты и спеешь, 
Колос наливая, - 
О людских заботах 
Ничего не зная. 
Уноси ты ветер, 
Тучу градовую; 
Сбереги нам, боже, 
Ниву трудовую!..
