Sosed
Language: Russian (Русский)
Kto b ni byl ty, pechal'nyj moj sosed, Ljublju tebja, kak druga junykh let, Tebja, tovarishch moj sluchajnyj, Khotja sud'by kovarnoju igroj Naveki my razlucheny s toboj Stenoj teper' — a posle tajnoj. Kogda zari rumjanyj polusvet V okno tjur'my proshchal'nyj svoj privet Mne, umiraja, posylajet I, opershis' na zvuchnoje ruzh'e, Nash chasovoj, pro staroje zhit'e Mechtaja, stoja zasypajet, — Togda, chelo skloniv k syroj stene, Ja slushaju — i v mrachnoj tishine Tvoi napevy razdajutsja. O chem oni — ne znaju, no toskoj Ispolneny, i zvuki cheredoj, Kak slezy, tikho l'jutsja, l'jutsja... I luchshikh let nadezhdy i ljubov' — V grudi mojej vsjo ozhivajet vnov', I mysli daleko nesutsja, I polon um zhelanij i strastej, I krov' kipit — i slezy iz ochej, Kak zvuki, drug za drugom l'jutsja.
