Zabludilsja ja v nebe — čto delat'?
Language: Russian (Русский)
Zabludilsja ja v nebe — čto delat'? Tot, komu ono blizko, — otvet'! Legče bylo vam, Dantovych devjat' Atletičeskich diskov, zvenet'. Ne raznjat' menja s žizn'ju: ej snitsja Ubivat' i sejčas že laskat', Čtoby v uši, v glaza i v glaznicy Florentijskaja bila toska. Ne kladite že mne, ne kladite Ostrolaskovyj lavr na viski, Lučše serdce moe razorvite Vy na sinego zvona kuski… I kogda ja usnu, otsluživši, Vsech živuščich prižiznennyj drug, On razdastsja i glubže i vyše – Otklik neba — v ostyvšuju grud'.
