by Ivan Alekseyevich Bunin (1870 - 1953)

Bushuet polaya voda
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Bushuet polaya voda,
Shumit i gluxo, i protyazhno.
Grachej proletny'e stada
Krichat i veselo i vazhno.

Dy'myatsya cherny'e bugry',
I utrom v vozduxe nagretom
Gusty'e bely'e pary'
Napoeny' teplom i svetom.

A v polden` luzhi pod oknom
Tak razlivayutsya i bleshhut,
Chto yarkim solnechny'm pyatnom
Po zalu «zajchiki» trepeshhut.

Mezh krugly'x ry'xly'x oblakov
Nevinno nebo golubeet,
I solnce laskovoe greet
V zatish`e gumen i dvorov.

Vesna, vesna! I vse ej rado.
Kak v zaby't`i kakom stoish`
I sly'shish` svezhij zapax sada
I teply'j zapax taly'x kry'sh.

Krugom voda zhurchit, sverkaet,
Krik petuxov zvuchit poroj,
A veter, myagkij i sy'roj,
Glaza tixon`ko zakry'vaet.
