by Aleksei Konstantinovich Tolstoy, Count (1817 - 1875)
V sovesti iskal ya dolgo obvinen`ya
Language: Russian (Русский)
V sovesti iskal ya dolgo obvinen`ya, Gorestnoe serdce voproshal dovol`no — Chisty' moi my'sli, chisty' pobuzhden`ya, A na svete zhit` mne tyazhelo i bol`no. Kazhdy'j zvuk sluchajny'j ya lovlyu py'tlivo, Pesnya li razdastsya na sele dalyokom, Veter li vskoly'shet zolotuyu nivu — Kazhdy'j zvuk neyasny'm mne zvuchit upryokom. Zaleglo gluboko smutnoe somnen`e, I dusha soboyu vechno nedovol`na: Net ej prigovora, net ej primiren`ya, I na svete zhit` mne tyazhelo i bol`no! Soglasit` ya silyus`, chto nesoglasimo, No naprasno razum b`yotsya i xlopochet, Gorestnaya chasha ne proxodit mimo, Ni k ustam zovushhim nizojti ne xochet!
