by Aleksei Nikolayevich Apukhtin (1841 - 1893)

Kogda ja byl rebjonkom
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Kogda rebjonkom mne sluchalos'
Uslyshat' pesn': «Khristos voskres!»,
To sonmy angelov, kazalos',
Pojut s likujushchikh nebes.

Segodnja nochi zhdu paskhal'noj..
Bezmolvny angelov polki,
I ne sojdut oni v pechal'nyj
Prijut neduga i toski.

I svetloj vesti voskresen'ja
Otvetit zdes', v nochnoj tishi,
Nemaja skorb' unichtozhen'ja
Kogda-to verivshej dushi.
