by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)
V chasy' zabav il` prazdnoj skuki
Language: Russian (Русский)
V chasy' zabav il` prazdnoj skuki, By'valo, lire ya moej Vveryal iznezhenny'e zvuki Bezumstva, leni i strastej. No i togda struny' lukavoj Nevol`no zvon ya prery'val, Kogda tvoj golos velichavy'j Menya vnezapno porazhal. YA lil potoki slyoz nezhdanny'x, I ranam sovesti moej Tvoix rechej blagouxanny'x Otraden chisty'j by'l elej. I ny'ne s vy'soty' duxovnoj Mne ruku prostiraesh` ty', I siloj krotkoj i lyubovnoj Smiryaesh` bujny'e mechty'. Tvoim ognyom dusha palima Otvergla mrak zemny'x suet, I vnemlet arfe serafima V svyashhennom uzhase poe`t.
