by Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Bestuzhev-Marlinsky (1797 - 1837)

Я не исчез в бездонной мгле
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Я не исчез в бездонной мгле,
Но, сединой веков юнея,
Раскинусь благом по земле,
Воспламеняя и светлея!

И, прокатясь ключом с горы,
Под сенью славы безымянной,
Столь отдалённой и желанной,
Достигну радостной поры,

Когда, познав закон природы,
Заветный плод во мгле времян
Людьми посеянных семян
Пожнут счастливые народы!

Когда на землю снидут вновь
Покой и братская любовь,
И свяжет радуга завета
В один народ весь смертный род,
И вера все пределы света
Волной живительной сольёт,
Как море благости и света!..
