Noch'
Language: Russian (Русский)
Spustilas' noch' v ubranstve zvezdnom, I, dol'nikh chuzhdye strastej, Kak by zazhglis' po sinim bezdnam T'my zorkikh, mysljashchikh ochej. Mir opochil. Jedva kolyshet Listy vetvej; krugom drema I son… Lish' noch' ne spit sama, Zhivet i moshchno, merno dyshit, I chutko zemlju storozhit, Vse veshchim tainstvom ob"emlet, I vse nevidimoje zrit, Neizglagolannomu vnemlet! Bezzvuchnyj khor vo mgle vedet… I vnjatna serdcu pesn' nochnaja, I mnitsja — s gornikh tekh vysot Zijajet pravda nezemnaja!..
