by Konstantin Dmitrevich Bal'mont (1867 - 1942)

Я обещаю вам сады
Language: Russian (Русский) 
    Я обещаю вам сады…
       Коран

Я обещаю вам сады,
Где поселитесь вы навеки,
Где свежесть утренней звезды.
Где спят нешепчущие реки.

Я призываю вас в страну,
Где нет печали, ни заката,
Я посвящу вас в тишину,
Откуда к бурям нет возврата.

Я покажу вам то, одно,
Что никогда вам не изменит,
Как камень, канувший на дно,
Верховных волн собой не вспенит.

Идите все на зов звезды,
Глядите, я горю пред вами.
Я обещаю вам сады
С неомрачёнными цветами.
