by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)

Zachem bezvremennuyu skuku
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Zachem bezvremennuyu skuku
Zloveshhej dumoyu pitat`,
I neizbezhnuyu razluku
V uny'n`e robkom ozhidat`?
I tak uzh blizok den` stradan`ya!
Odin, v tishi pusty'x polej,
Ty' budesh` zvat` vospominan`ya
Poteryanny'x toboyu dnej.
Togda izgnan`em i mogiloj,
Neschastny'j, budesh` ty' gotov
Kupit` xot` slovo devy' miloj,
Xot` lyogkij shum eyo shagov.
