by Nikolai Platonovich Ogaryov (1813 - 1877)

Priroda znoem dnya utomlena
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Priroda znoem dnya utomlena
I prosit vechera skorej u boga,
I vecher vstretit s radost`yu ona,
No v e`toj radosti kak grusti mnogo!

     I tot, komu uzh zhizn` davno skuchna,
On prosit starosti skorej u boga,
I smert` emu na radost` suzhdena,
No v e`toj radosti kak grusti mnogo!

     A ya i molod, zhizn` moya polna,
Na radost` mne lyubov` dana ot boga,
I pesn` moya na radost` mne dana,—
No v e`toj radosti kak grusti mnogo!
