by Afanasy Afanas'yevich Fet (1820 - 1892)
Ot ognej, ot tolpy' besposhhadnoj
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ot ognej, ot tolpy' besposhhadnoj Nezametno bezhali my' proch`; Lish` vdvoyom my' v teni zdes` proxladnoj, Tret`ya s nami lazurnaya noch`. Serdce robkoe b`yotsya trevozhno, Zhazhdet schast`e i dat` i xranit`; Ot lyudej utait`sya vozmozhno, No ot zvyozd nichego ne sokry't`. I bezmolvna, krotka, serebrista, E`ta polnoch` za dy'mkoj skvoznoj Vidit tol`ko chtó vechno i chisto, Chtó naveyano eyu samoj.
