by Ivan Alekseyevich Bunin (1870 - 1953)

Posle boja
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Votknuv kop'jo, on sbrosil shlem i ljog.
Kurgan byl zhjostkij, vybityj. Kol'chuga
Kolola grud', a spinu polden' zhjog...
Osennej sush'ju zharko dulo s juga.

I umer [on. Okostenel]1, zastyl,
Pripav k zemle tjazhjoloj golovoju.
[I]2 veter volosami shevelil,
Kak kovylem, kak mjortvoju travoju.

I murav'i zakoposhilis' v nikh...
No ravnodushno vsjo vokrug molchalo,
I daleko sredi polej nagikh
Kop'jo, v kurgan votknutoje, torchalo.
