by Izabella Arkadyevna Grinyevskaya (1864 - 1942)

Когда, упав, не будешь в силах
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Когда, упав, не будешь в силах
С долины вновь подняться ввысь,
Твой взор к лазури обращая,
Мой друг, смирись.

Когда увидишь, что на небе
Горами тучи собрались -
Без страха перед злой стихией -
Мой друг, смирись.

Когда увидишь, что оковы
Неволи вкруг тебя сплелись -
Храня великую надежду,
Мой друг, смирись.

Но лишь над гордою душою
Почуешь гнет - ты не клонись,
Пред властной, пред могучей силой,
Мой друг, борись!
