by Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Blok (1880 - 1921)

Za gorami, lesami
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Za gorami, lesami,
Za dorogami py'l`ny'mi,
Za xolmami mogil`ny'mi —
Pod drugimi czvetyosh` nebesami…

I kogda zabeleet gora,
Dol odenetsya zelen`yu veshneyu,
Vspominayu s pechal`yu nezdeshneyu
Vsyo by'loe moyo, kak vchera…

V snax pechal`ny'x tebya uznayu
I szhimayu rukami moimi
Charodejnuyu ruku tvoyu,
Povtoryaya dalekoe imya.
