При яшмовйх сходах туга
Language: Ukrainian (Українська) after the Chinese (中文)
Я стою при сходах… Осінній Вже на яшмі осідає іній. Нескінченна ніч… Росою вже Зрошено мереживну панчоху. Я, сумна, до себе повернулась, Кришталевою запоною запнулась, Та й крізь неї бачу, як ясний Височіє місяць восени!
