Krest na skale
Language: Russian (Русский)
V tesnine [Kavkaza]1 ja znaju skalu, Tuda doletet' liš' stepnomu orlu, No krest derevjannyj černeet nad nej, Gniët on i gnëtsja ot bur' i doždej. I mnogo už let proteklo bez sledov S tech por, kak on viden s dalëkich cholmov. I každaja kverchu pod"jata ruka, Kak budto on chočet schvatit' oblaka. O esli b vzojti udalos' mne tuda, Kak ja by molilsja i plakal togda; I posle ja sbrosil by cep' bytija I s bureju bratom nazvalsja by ja!
