by Izabella Arkadyevna Grinyevskaya (1864 - 1942)

Ya umeret` xochu, chtob plakal ty'
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ya umeret` xochu, chtob plakal ty'
Chtob plakal, i czvety' 
V moj grob nemoj brosal, 
Chtoby' golubkoyu menya ty' nazy'val, 
Golubkoyu svoej, kak toj poroj,
Kogda nadezhd i grez puglivy'j roj 
Ukrasil rannij nash ternisty'j put`. 
YA umeret` xochu, navek usnut`, 
Chtob, mertvoj mne darya v poslednij raz czvety', 
Bezumno plakal ty'.

About the headline (FAQ)

Confirmed with Изабелла Гриневская, Стихотворения, С.-Петербург, Типо-Литография В. М. Вольфа, Разъезжая 15, 1904, page 9. Note: the archaic characters 'ѣ' and 'i' have been modernized to 'е' and 'и' respectively, and the hard signs 'ъ' at the end of words have been removed, following the spelling reform of 1917-1918.
