by Mikhail Yur'yevich Lermontov (1814 - 1841)

Opasenie
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Strashis` lyubvi: ona projdyot,
Ona mechtoj tvoj um vstrevozhit,
Toska po nej tebya ub`yot,
Nichto voskresnut` ne pomozhet.
Krasa, lyubimaya toboj,
Tebe otdast, polozhim, ruku…
Goda mel`knut… Letun sedoj
Ukazhet vechnuyu razluku…
I beden, zhalok budesh` ty',
Glyadyashhij s kresel il` podushki
Na bezobrazny'e cherty'
Tvoej dokuchlivoj starushki,
Kol` my'sli o by'ly'x letax
V tvoj um zakrádutsya poroyu,
I vspomnish`, kak na six shhekax
Igralo zhizn`yu molodoyu…
Bez druga luchshe dni vlachit`
I k smerti radostnej klonit`sya,
Chem dva udara vy'nosit`
I serdcem o dvoix krushit`sya!..
