by Konstantin Nikolayevich L'dov (1862 - 1935)

Kak plamya dal`nego kadila
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Kak plamya dal`nego kadila,
Zakat gorel i dogoral...
Ty' ravnodushno uxodila,
YA izny'val, ya umiral...

I dogorel koster nebesny'j,
I otzvuchali struny' dnya,
I ty', kak den`, ushla prelestnoj
I stranno chuzhdoj dlya menya.

Zazhgutsya vnov` ogni zakata
I zor` prozrachny'x yantari,
Lish` zoryam schast`ya - net vozvrata.
Nocham serdechny'm - net zari!
