by Afanasy Afanas'yevich Fet (1820 - 1892)
Ot ognej, ot tolpy besposhchadnoj
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ot ognej, ot tolpy besposhchadnoj Nezametno bezhali my proch'; Lish' vdvojom my v teni zdes' prokhladnoj, Tret'ja s nami lazurnaja noch'. Serdce robkoje b'jotsja trevozhno, Zhazhdet schast'e i dat' i khranit'; Ot ljudej utait'sja vozmozhno, No ot zvjozd nichego ne sokryt'. I bezmolvna, krotka, serebrista, `Eta polnoch' za dymkoj skvoznoj Vidit tol'ko chtó vechno i chisto, Chtó navejano jeju samoj.
