by Poliksena Sergeyevna Solovyova (1867 - 1924)
Belaja noč'
Language: Russian (Русский)
Zemlja ne spit, naprasno ožidaja Ob"jatij sumraka i nežnoj tišiny, Gorit zarja, polneba obnimaja, Bredut tolpoj ispugannye sny. I vse živet kakoj-to žizn'ju ložnoj, Uspokoenija naprasno žaždet vzor, Kak budto angel blednyj i trevožnyj Nad mirom kryl'ja belye proster.
