V sovesti iskal ja dolgo obvinen'ja
Language: Russian (Русский)
V sovesti iskal ja dolgo obvinen'ja, Gorestnoje serdce voproshal dovol'no — Chisty moi mysli, chisty pobuzhden'ja, A na svete zhit' mne tjazhelo i bol'no. Kazhdyj zvuk sluchajnyj ja lovlju pytlivo, Pesnja li razdastsja na sele daljokom, Veter li vskolyshet zolotuju nivu — Kazhdyj zvuk nejasnym mne zvuchit uprjokom. Zaleglo gluboko smutnoje somnen'e, I dusha soboju vechno nedovol'na: Net jej prigovora, net jej primiren'ja, I na svete zhit' mne tjazhelo i bol'no! Soglasit' ja siljus', chto nesoglasimo, No naprasno razum b'jotsja i khlopochet, Gorestnaja chasha ne prokhodit mimo, Ni k ustam zovushchim nizojti ne khochet!
