by Zinaida Nikolayevna Gippius (1869 - 1945)

Protivorečija
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Tichie okna, čërnye... 
Doždik idët šepotom...  
   Mysli moi — nepokornye. 
   Serdce polno — ropotom.  

Padajut kapli žarkie 
Robko, s mirnym lepetom. 
   Mysli — takie jarkie... 
   Serdce polno — trepetom.  

Travy šepčutsja sonnye... 
Nežnoj veet skukoju...  
   Mysli moi — vozmuščennye, 
   Serdce gorit — mukoju...  

I molčan'e večernee, 
Sonnoe, otradnoe,  
   Ranit eščë bezmernee 
   Serdce moë žadnoe...
