by Aleksey Nikolayevich Pleshcheyev (1825 - 1893)

Zvuki
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ne umolkaj, ne umolkaj!
Otradny' serdczu e`ti zvuki,
Xot` na ediny'j mig puskaj
V grudi bol`noj zadremlyut muki.

Volnen`ya proshly'x, davnix dnej
Mne pesn` tvoya napominaet;
I l`yutsya slezy' iz ochej,
I sladko serdce zamiraet… 

I mnitsya mne, chto sly'shu ya
Znakomy'j golos, serdczu mily'j;
By'valo, on vlechet menya
K sebe kakoj-to chudnoj siloj; 

I budto snova predo mnoj
Spokojny'j, tixij vzor siyaet
I dushu sladostnoj toskoj,
Toskoj blazhenstva napolnyaet… 

Tak poj zhe! Legche dy'shit grud`,
I stixli v nej somnen`ya muki…
O, esli b mog kogda-nibud`
YA umeret` pod e`ti zvuki!
