Zvyozdy'
Language: Russian (Русский) 
    I svet vo t`me siyaet
    i t`ma ne ob``yala Ego.
    (Sv. Evangelie ot Ioanna)

Kogda nadvinut polog nochi
Nad mirom, skovanny'm vo sne,
Sverkayut zvezdy', - Bozh`i ochi, -
Sapfirom yarkim v vy'shine.

Sozdatel`, moshh`yu beskonechny'j,
Siyat` vo t`me im povelel.
- Da znaet mir, chto Pravdy' vechnoj,
Chto Sveta mrak ne odolel!

Da znaet mir, chto den` nastanet:
Voskresnet radostno vostok -
I v e`tu t`mu vsesil`no gryanet
Luchej zhivitel`ny'j potok!..
