by Mikhail Yur'yevich Lermontov (1814 - 1841)

Moj dom
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Moj dom vezde, gde est' nebesnyj svod,
      Gde tol'ko slyšny zvuki pesen.
Vsë, v čem est' iskra žizni, v nëm živet,
      No dlja poėta on ne tesen.

Do samych zvezd on krovlej dosjagaet,
      I ot odnoj steny k drugoj —
Dalekij put', kotoryj izmerjaet
      Žilec ne vzorom, no dušoj.

Est' čuvstvo pravdy v serdce čeloveka,
      Svjatoe večnosti zerno:
Prostranstvo bez granic, tečen'e veka
      Ob"emlet v kratkij mig ono.

I vsemoguščim moj prekrasnyj dom
      Dlja čuvstva ėtogo postroen,
I osužden stradat' ja dolgo v nëm,
      I v nëm liš' budu ja spokoen.
