by Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Blok (1880 - 1921)
Grustya i placha i smeyas`
Language: Russian (Русский)
Grustya i placha i smeyas`,
Zvenyat ruch`i moix stixov
U nog tvoix,
I kazhdy'j stix
Bezhit, pletyot zhivuyu vyaz`,
Svoix ne znaya beregov.
No skvoz` xrustal`ny'e strui
Ty' daleka mne, kak by'la…
Poyut i plachut xrustali…
Kak mne sozdat` cherty' tvoi,
Chtob ty' prijti ko mne mogla
Iz ocharovannoj dali?
