Na zapade solnce pylajet
Language: Russian (Русский)
Na zapade solnce pylajet, Bagrjanoje more gorit; Korabl' odinokij, kak ptica, Po vlage kholodnoj skol'zit. Sverkajet struja za kormoju, Kak kryl'ja, shumjat parusa; Krugom neogljadnoje more, I s morem slilis' nebesa. Bespechno veseluju pesnju, Zadumavshis', kormchij pojot, A chjornaja tucha na juge, Kak dym ot pozhapa, vstajot. Vot burja… i more zavylo, Umolk bezzabotnyj pevec; Ognjom jego vspykhnuli ochi: Teper' on i car' i bojec! Vot zdes' uznaju cheloveka V lice pobeditelja voln, I kak-to otradno mne dumat', Chto ja chelovekom rozhdjon.
