Czvetok
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Na Daurskix stepyax est` chudesny'j czvetok,
On ne krasen listkom, ne dushist lepestkom,
Bledny'j, vyaly'j czvetok, on stoit odinok.

I verblyud, i koza proch` begut ot nego,
Ni pchela, ni osa ne p`yut medu ego,
Bledny'j, vyaly'j czvetok, on stoit odinok.
No chudesen czvetok - yadovit ego sok.

O! Ne pryach`sya v travu, ya tebya ne sorvu,
Beregu ya tebya dlya zavetnogo dnya.
Kogda beluyu grud` porazit, razorvet,
Kak steklo, razob`et bezotradnaya grust`,

Il` blazhenstvo moe kto otnimet, voz`met,
Togda v gore nemom i bez slez na glazax
YA pridu za toboj potaennoj tropoj.
Ty' razlejsya ognem v bednom tele moem,
Ty' sozhgi ego v prax, moj czvetok dorogoj!
