Vecher
Language: Russian (Русский)
Solnce utomilos`, xodya den`-den`skoj; Tixo dogoraya, gasnet za rekoj. Kraj dalyokij neba ves` zarej oblit, Zarevom pozhara bleshhet i gorit. V vozduxe smolkaet shum dnevny'x trevog; Tish` nochnuyu s neba shlyot na zemlyu bog. Xodyat ognevy'e polosy' v reke; Grustno gde-to pesnya l`yotsya vdaleke. Tixo... Otchego zhe v serdce u menya Ne stixaet gore prozhitogo dnya? Otchego zh tak bol`no skorb` szhimaet grud`? Bozhe moj! bozhe moj! daj mne otdoxnut`!
