On na zapad glyadit — solnce k moryu spuskaetsya, Svetit po moryu krasny'm ognem. On zasty'l na skale — vetxij plashh razvevaetsya Ot xolodnogo vetra na nem. Opirayas` na mech, on glyadit na bagrovuyu Cheshuyu bespredel`ny'x zy'bej. No ne vidit on voln — tol`ko dumu surovuyu Oznachayut izgiby' brovej. Dreven mir. On drevnej. Plashh Odina kak vretishhe, Rzha vekov — na zheleznom meche... Cherny'j voron Xugin, skorbnoj Pamyati detishhe, U nego na pleche.
