Ya k rozam xochu, v tot edinstvenny'j sad, Gde luchshaya v mire stoit iz ograd, Gde statui pomnyat menya molodoj, A ya ix pod nevskoyu pomnyu vodoj. V dushistoj tishi mezhdu czarstvenny'x lip Mne macht korabel`ny'x mereshhitsya skrip. I lebed`, kak prezhde, ply'vet skvoz` veka, Lyubuyas` krasoj svoego dvojnika. I zamertvo spyat sotni ty'syach shagov Vragov i druzej, druzej i vragov. A shestviyu tenej ne vidno koncza Ot vazy' granitnoj do dveri dvorcza. Tam shepchutsya bely'e nochi moi O ch`ej-to vy'sokoj i tajnoj lyubvi. I vse perlamutrom i yashmoj gorit, No sveta istochnik tainstvenno skry't.
