by Evgeny Abramovich Baratynsky (1800 - 1844)

Vodopad
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Shumi, shumi s krutoj vershiny,
Ne umolkaj, potok sedoj!
Sojedinjaj protjazhnyj voj
S protjazhnym otzyvom doliny.

Ja slyshu: svishchet Akvilon,
Kachajet jeliju skrypuchej,
I s nepogodoju revuchej
Tvoj rjov mjatezhnyj soglashon.

Zachem, s bezumnym ozhidan'em,
K tebe prislushivajus' ja?
Zachem trepeshchet grud' moja
Kakim-to veshchim trepetan'em?

Kak ocharovannyj stoju
Nad dymnoj bezdnoju tvojeju
I, mnitsja, serdcem razumeju
Rech' bezglagol'nuju tvoju.

Shumi, shumi s krutoj vershiny,
Ne umolkaj, potok sedoj!
Sojedinjaj protjazhnyj voj
S protjazhnym otzyvom doliny!
