Večno‑bezmolvnoe Nebo, smutno‑prekrasnoe...
Language: Russian (Русский)
Večno-bezmolvnoe Nebo, smutno-prekrasnoe More, Oba okutany svetom mertvenno-blednoj Luny. Veter v prostranstve smutilsja, smolk v bezutešnom prostore, Nebo, i Veter, i More grust'ju odnoju bol'ny. V cholode gibnet i merknet vsë, čto glubóko i nežno, V užase Nebo zastylo, stranno mercaet Luna. Gor'kaja vlaga bezdonna, More sineet bezbrežno, Skorb' bytija neizbežna, net i ne budet ej dna.
