by Afanasy Afanas'yevich Fet (1820 - 1892)

Fantaziya
Language: Russian (Русский) 
My' odni; iz sada v stekla okon
Svetit mesyacz… tuskly' nashi svechi;
Tvoj dushisty'j, tvoj poslushny'j lokon,
Razvivayas`, padaet na plechi.

Chto zh molchim my'? Ili samovlastno
Czarstvo tixoj, svetloj nochi maya?
Il` poet i yarko tak i strastno
Solovej, nad rozoj izny'vaya?

Il` prosnulis` ptichki za kustami,
Tam, gde veter koly'xal ix gnezdy',
I, drozha revnivy'mi luchami,
Blizhe, blizhe k nam nisxodyat zvezdy'?

Na suku izvilistom i chudnom,
Pestry'x skazok py'shnaya zhilicza,
Vsya v ogne, v siyan`i izumrudnom,
Nad vodoj kachaetsya zhar-pticza;

Raspisny'e rakoviny' bleshhut
V perelivax chudnoj pozoloty',
Do luny' zhemchuzhnoj penoj meshhut
I almaznoj py'l`yu vodomety'.

List`ya polny' svetly'x nasekomy'x,
Vsyo rastet i rvetsya von iz mery',
Mnogo snov pronositsya znakomy'x,
I na serdce mnogo sladkoj very'.

Perexodyat raduzhny'e kraski,
Razdrazhaya oko svetom lozhny'm;
Mig eshhe — i net volshebnoj skazki,
I dusha opyat` polna vozmozhny'm.

My' odni; iz sada v stekla okon
Svetit mesyacz… tuskly' nashi svechi;
Tvoj dushisty'j, tvoj poslushny'j lokon,
Razvivayas`, padaet na plechi.
