by Anna Andreyevna Akhmatova (1889 - 1966)
Khoroni, khoroni menja, veter!
Language: Russian (Русский)
Khoroni, khoroni menja, veter! Rodnye moi ne prishli, Nado mnoju bluzhdajushchij vecher I dykhan'e tikhoj zemli. Ja byla, kak i ty, svobodnoj, No ja slishkom khotela zhit'. Vidish', veter, moj trup kholodnyj, I nekomu ruki slozhit'. Zakroj `etu chernuju ranu Pokrovom vechernej t'my I veli golubomu tumanu Nado mnoju chitat' psalmy. Chtoby mne legko, odinokoj, Otojti k poslednemu snu, Proshumi vysokoj osokoj Pro vesnu, pro moju vesnu.
