by Marina Ivanovna Tsvetaeva (1892 - 1941)

Osypalis' list'ja nad Vashej mogiloj
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Osypalis' list'ja nad Vashej mogiloj,
I pakhnet zimoj.
Poslushajte, mjortvyj, poslushajte, milyj:
Vy vsjo-taki moj.

Smejotes'! — V blazhennoj krylatke dorozhnoj!
Luna vysoka.
Moj — tak nesomnenno i tak neprelozhno,
Kak `eta ruka.

Opjat' s uzelkom podojdu utrom rano
K bol'nichnym dverjam.
Vy prosto ujekhali v zharkije strany,
K velikim morjam.

Ja Vas celovala! Ja Vam koldovala!
Smejus' nad zagrobnoju t'moj!
Ja smerti ne verju! Ja zhdu Vas s vokzala —
Domoj.

Pust' list'ja osypalis', smyty i stjorty
Na traurnykh lentakh slova.
I, jesli dlja celogo mira Vy mjortvyj,
Ja tozhe mertva.

Ja vizhu, ja chuvstvuju, — chuju Vas vsjudu!
— Chtó lenty ot Vashikh venkov! —
Ja Vas ne zabyla i Vas ne zabudu
Vo veki vekov!

Takikh obeshchanij ja znaju bescel'nost',
Ja znaju tshchetu.
— Pis'mo v beskonechnost'. — Pis'mo
‎                     v bespredel'nost' —
Pis'mo v pustotu.
