Dva sokola
Language: Russian (Русский)
Step`, sineya, rasstilalas` Bliz Azovskix beregov. Zapad gas, i noch` spuskalas`; Vixr` skol`zil mezhdu xolmov. I, tryaxnuvshis`, v pole dikom Sery'j sokol tixo sel, I k nemu s otvetny'm krikom Brat streloyu priletel. «Bratecz, bratecz, chto ty' videl? Rasskazhi mne poskorej». — «Ax, ya svet voznenavidel I bezzhalostny'x lyudej». — «Chto zh ty' videl tam xudogo?» — «Kuchu kamenny'x serdecz: Deve smex toska milógo, Dlya detej tiran otecz. Devy' mukoj slez pravdivy'x Veselyatsya, kak igroj, I u nog samolyubivy'x Gibnut yunoshi tolpoj!.. Bratecz, bratecz! ty' chto zh videl? Rasskazhi mne poskorej!» — «Svet i ya voznenavidel I izmenchivy'x lyudej. Nosheyu obmanov skry'ty'x Yunost` tam udruchena, Vspominanij yadovity'x Starost` mrachnaya polna. Gordost`, ver` ty' mne, prekrasnoj Zaby'vaetsya poroj, No izmena devy' strastnoj — Nozh dlya serdcza vekovoj!..»
