by Dmitry Sergeyevich Merezhkovsky (1865 - 1941)

O Bože moj, blagodarju
Language: Russian (Русский) 
O Bože moj, blagodarju
Za to, čto dal moim očam
Ty videt' mir, Tvoj večnyj chram,
I noč', i volny, i zarju…

Puskaj mučen'ja mne grozjat, -
Blagodarju za ėtot mig,
Za vse, čto serdcem ja postig,
O čem mne zvezdy govorjat…

Vezde ja čuvstvuju, vezde,
Tebja Gospod', — v nočnoj tiši,
I v otdalennejšej zvezde,
I v glubine moej duši.

JA Boga žaždal — i ne znal;
Ešče ne veril, no ljubja,
Poka rassudkom otrical, —
JA serdcem čuvstvoval Tebja.

I Ty otkrylsja mne: Ty — mir.
Ty — vse. Ty — nebo i voda,
Ty — golos buri, Ty — ėfir,
Ty — mysl' poėta, Ty — zvezda…

Poka živu — Tebe moljus',
Tebja ljublju, dyšu Toboj,
Kogda umru — s Toboj sol'jus',
Kak zvezdy s utrennej zarej.

Choču, čtob žizn' moja byla
Tebe nemolčnaja chvala.
Tebja za polnoč' i zarju,
Za žizn' i smert' — blagodarju!..
