Polunochny'e obrazy' reyut
Language: Russian (Русский)
Polunochny'e obrazy' reyut, Bleshhut iskrami yarko vpot`max, No glaza razlichit` ne umeyut, Mnogo l` ix na trevozhny'x kry'lax. Polunochny'e obrazy' stonut, Kak bol`noj v utomitel`nom sne, I vsply'vayut, i stonut, i tonut — No o chem e`to stonut one? Polunochny'e obrazy' voyut, Kak duxov ispugavshijsya pes; To naxly'nut, to bezdnu otkroyut, Kak volna obnazhaet utes.
