Krugi
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ya pomnyu: my' vdvoyom sideli na skamejke.
Pred nami by'l pokinuty'j istochnik
i tixaya zelen`.
YA govoril o Boge, o sozerczanii i zhizni...
I, chtob ponyatnej by'lo moemu rebenku,
ya legkie krugi chertil na peske.
I god minul. I nezhnaya, kak mat`, pechal`
menya na tu skamejku privela.
Vot pokinuty'j istochnik,
ta zhe tixaya zelen`,
te zhe my'sli o Boge, o zhizni.
Tol`ko net bezvinno-umershix, nevoskresshix slov,
i net dozhdem smy'ty'x,
zemlej skry'ty'x,
moix yasny'x, legkix krugov.
