Kakaja divnaja kartina
Language: Russian (Русский)
Kakaja divnaja kartina Tvoja, o, sever moj, tvoja! Vsegda besplodnaja ravnina, Pustaja, kak mečta moja! Zdes' duch moj, zlobnyj i upornyj, Trevožit smechom tišinu; I, otklikajas', voron černyj Kačaet mertvuju sosnu; Vnizu klokočut vodopady, Toča granit i korni drev; I na kamnjach pojut najady Bespolyj gimn bezmužnich dev; I v ėtom gule vod cholodnych, V postylom krike voron'ja, Pod ryb'im vzorom dev besplodnych Tichon'ko tleet žizn' moja!
