Zvjozdy
Language: Russian (Русский) 
    I svet vo t'me sijajet
    i t'ma ne ob"jala Jego.
    (Sv. Jevangelije ot Ioanna)

Kogda nadvinut polog nochi
Nad mirom, skovannym vo sne,
Sverkajut zvezdy, - Bozh'i ochi, -
Sapfirom jarkim v vyshine.

Sozdatel', moshch'ju beskonechnyj,
Sijat' vo t'me im povelel.
- Da znajet mir, chto Pravdy vechnoj,
Chto Sveta mrak ne odolel!

Da znajet mir, chto den' nastanet:
Voskresnet radostno vostok -
I v `etu t'mu vsesil'no grjanet
Luchej zhivitel'nyj potok!..
