Vechno‑bezmolvnoe Nebo, smutno‑prekrasnoe...
Language: Russian (Русский)
Vechno-bezmolvnoe Nebo, smutno-prekrasnoe More, Oba okutany' svetom mertvenno-blednoj Luny'. Veter v prostranstve smutilsya, smolk v bezuteshnom prostore, Nebo, i Veter, i More grust`yu odnoyu bol`ny'. V xolode gibnet i merknet vsyo, chto glubóko i nezhno, V uzhase Nebo zasty'lo, stranno merczaet Luna. Gor`kaya vlaga bezdonna, More sineet bezbrezhno, Skorb` by'tiya neizbezhna, net i ne budet ej dna.
