by Ivan Alekseyevich Bunin (1870 - 1953)

Bušuet polaja voda
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Bušuet polaja voda,
Šumit i glucho, i protjažno.
Gračej proletnye stada
Kričat i veselo i važno.

Dymjatsja černye bugry,
I utrom v vozduche nagretom
Gustye belye pary
Napoeny teplom i svetom.

A v polden' luži pod oknom
Tak razlivajutsja i bleščut,
Čto jarkim solnečnym pjatnom
Po zalu «zajčiki» trepeščut.

Mež kruglych rychlych oblakov
Nevinno nebo golubeet,
I solnce laskovoe greet
V zatiš'e gumen i dvorov.

Vesna, vesna! I vse ej rado.
Kak v zabyt'i kakom stoiš'
I slyšiš' svežij zapach sada
I teplyj zapach talych kryš.

Krugom voda žurčit, sverkaet,
Krik petuchov zvučit poroj,
A veter, mjagkij i syroj,
Glaza tichon'ko zakryvaet.
