Davnym‑davno
Language: Russian (Русский)
Davno li um s fortunoj v ssore, A glupost' — schastija zerno? Davno li iskrennim byt' — gore, Davno li chestnym byt' smeshno? Davno l' tridcatyj god Izore? Davnym-davno.Kogda `Erast gljadel vel'mozhej, Ty, Frol, dyshal s nim zaodno. Vchera uzh ne v jego prikhozhej Vertelos' schast'ja veretno; Davno l' s nim videlsja? — «O bozhe! Davnym-davno».«Davno l' v ladu s zdorov'em, siloj Chestil ljubov' ja i vino?» — Raz govoril podagrik khilyj; Zhena v uglu molchala, no… V otvet primolvil vzdokh unylyj: Davnym-davno.Davno l' znak chesti na pozornom Lish' tol'ko jarkoje pjatno, Davno l' na vozdukhe pridvornom Vdrug i teplo i studeno I derzhat pravdu v tele chernom? Davnym-davno.
