by Nikolai Platonovich Ogaryov (1813 - 1877)

Kogda vo t'me nochnoj, v muchitel'noj tishi
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Kogda vo t'me nochnoj, v muchitel'noj tishi,
Moi glaza dremotoj ne somknuty -
Ja v bezotvjazchivom tomlenii dushi
Perezhivaju trudnye minuty.
Vse lica prezhnije, kartiny prezhnikh let
Peredo mnoj pronosjatsja, kak teni;
No chuvstva prezhnego vo mne uzh bol'she net:
Ja kholodno gljazhu na rjad videnij.
Naprasno siljus' ja budit' v dushe mojej,
Chto zhilo v nej tak sladko il' trevozhno;
Ljubov', stradanije, blazhenstvo prezhnikh dnej
Mne kazhetsja ili smeshno, il' lozhno.
I mne grjadushcheje zameny ne sulit;
Vsja zhizn' projdet nesnosnoju oshibkoj,
I slezy gor'kije, tekushchije s lanit,
Usta glotajut s gor'koju ulybkoj.
