My' vstretilis` sluchajno, na uglu
Language: Russian (Русский)
My' vstretilis` sluchajno, na uglu. YA by'stro shel — i vdrug kak svet zarnicy' Vechernyuyu prorezal polumglu Skvoz` cherny'e luchisty'e resnicy'. Na nej by'l krep, — prozrachny'j legkij gaz Vesennij veter vzveyal na mgnoven`e, No na lice i v yarkom bleske glaz YA ulovil by'loe ozhivlen`e. I laskovo kivnula mne ona, Slegka liczo ot vetra naklonila I skry'las` za uglom… By'la vesna… Ona menya prostila — i zaby'la.
