by Anna Andreyevna Akhmatova (1889 - 1966)

Ne mudreno, chto ne vesely'm zvonom
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ne mudreno, chto ne vesely'm zvonom
Zvuchit poroj moj nepokorny'j stix
I chto grushhu. Uzhe za Flegetonom
Tri chetverti chitatelej moix.

A vy', druz`ya! Ostalos` vas nemnogo, —
Mne ottogo vy' s kazhdy'm dnem milej...
Kakoj korotkoj sdelalas` doroga,
Kotoraya kazalas` vsex dlinnej.
