Vysokij dub, glubokaja voda, Spokojnye krugom ložatsja teni, I ticho tak, kak budto nikogda Priroda zdes' ne znala potrjasenij. I ticho tak, kak budto nikogda Zdes' kryši sel ne slychivali groma. Ne vstrepenetsja veter u pruda I na dvore ne zašuršit soloma. I redok sonnyj korostelja krik. Vernulsja ja - byloe ne vernëtsja. Prodlitsja pust' chotja by ėtot mig, Nu, čto že - pust' chot' ėto ostaëtsja, Poka eščë ne vedoma beda, I tak spokojno dvigajutsja teni, I ticho tak, kak budto nikogda Uže ne budet v žizni potrjasenij. I vsej dušoj, kotoruju ne žal' Vsju potopit' v tainstvennom i milom, Ovladevaet tichaja pečal', Kak lunnyj svet ovladevaet mirom.
