by Arseny Arkad'yevich Golenishchev-Kutuzov (1848 - 1913)

Noč'
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ėto zvezdnoe nebo v sijan'i nočnom, 
Ėto sinee more pod lunnym lučom, 
Ėtot dremljuščij bereg i mernyj priboj 
Zamirajuščich voln - kak moguč ich pokoj! 
Kak pobedno on l'etsja v ustaluju grud', 
Kak v ego volšebstve chorošo otdochnut', 
Pozabyt' istomivšuju serdce pečal', 
Unestis' bezvozvratno v bezbrežnuju dal',
Gde pečal' nad krylatoj mečtoj ne vlastna,
Gde liš' more, da nebo, da noč', da luna!
