by Anna Andreyevna Akhmatova (1889 - 1966)
Vmesto mudrosti — opytnost', presnoje
Language: Russian (Русский)
Vmesto mudrosti — opytnost', presnoje Neutoljajushcheje pit'e. A junost' byla kak molitva voskresnaja… Mne li zabyt' jejo? Skol'ko dorog pustynnykh iskhozheno S tem, kto mne ne byl mil, Skol'ko poklonov v cerkvakh polozheno Za togo, kto menja ljubil… Stala zabyvchivej vsekh zabyvchivykh, Tikho plyvut goda. Gub necelovannykh, glaz neulybchivykh Mne ne vernut' nikogda.
