Ljublju tebja, Petra tvoren'e,
Ljublju tvoj strogij, strojnyj vid,
Nevy derzhavnoje techen'e,
Beregovoj jee granit,
Tvoikh ograd uzor chugunnyj,
Tvoikh zadumchivykh nochej
Prozrachnyj sumrak, blesk bezlunnyj,
Kogda ja v komnate mojej
Pishu, chitaju bez lampady,
I jasny spjashchije gromady
Pustynnykh ulic, i svetla
Admiraltejskaja igla,
I, ne puskaja t'mu nochnuju
Na zolotye nebesa,
Odna zarja smenit' druguju
Speshit, dav nochi polchasa.
Ljublju zimy tvojej zhestokoj
Nedvizhnyj vozdukh i moroz,
Beg sanok vdol' Nevy shirokoj,
Devich'i lica jarche roz,
I blesk, i shum, i govor balov,
A v chas pirushki kholostoj
Shipen'e penistykh bokalov
I punsha plamen' goluboj.
Ljublju voinstvennuju zhivost'
Poteshnykh Marsovykh polej,
Pekhotnykh ratej i... konej
Odnoobraznuju krasivost',
V ikh strojno zyblemom stroju
Loskut'ja sikh znamen pobednykh,
Sijan'e shapok `etikh mednykh,
Naskvoz' prostrelennykh v boju.
Ljublju, vojennaja stolica,
Tvojej tverdyni dym i grom,
Kogda polnoshchnaja carica
Darujet syna v carskoj dom,
Ili pobedu nad vragom
Rossija snova torzhestvujet,
Ili, vzlomav svoj sinij led,
Neva k morjam jego neset
I, chuja veshni dni, likujet.
Krasujsja, grad Petrov, i stoj
Nekolebimo kak Rossija,
Da umiritsja zhe s toboj
I pobezhdennaja stikhija;
Vrazhdu i plen starinnyj svoj
Pust' volny finskije zabudut
I tshchetnoj zloboju ne budut
Trevozhit' vechnyj son Petra!
