Ottepel'... Pole černeet; Krovlja na cerkvi obmokla; Tak vot i veet, i veet - Pachnet vesnoju: skvoz' stekla. S každoju novoj ložbinkoj Vodopol' vsë pribyvaet, I ogranennoju l'dinkoj Vešnjaja zvezdočka taet. Teni v uglach ševel'nulis', Temnye, sonnye teni, Vdol' po stenam potjanulis', Na pol ložatsja ot leni... Son i menja tak i klonit... Teni za tenjami - grezy... Duma v nevedomom tonet... Na serdce - krupnye slezy. Och, esli b kryl'ja da kryl'ja, Esli by dolja da dolja, Ne bylo b mysli "bessil'ja", Ne bylo b slova - "nevolja".
