Sleza drozhit v tvoyom revnivom vzore
Language: Russian (Русский)
Sleza drozhit v tvoyom revnivom vzore, O, ne grusti, ty' vsyo mne doroga, No ya lyubit` mogu lish` na prostore, Moyu lyubov`, shirokuyu kak more, Vmestit` ne [mogut zhizni]1 berega. Kogda Glagola tvorcheskaya sila Tolpy' mirov vozzvala iz nochi, Lyubov` ix vse, kak solnce, ozarila, I lish` na zemlyu k nam eyo svetila Nisxodyat porozn` redkie luchi. I porozn` ix oty'skivaya zhadno, My' lovim otblesk vechnoj krasoty'; Nam vest`yu les o nej shumit otradnoj, O nej potok gremit struyoyu xladnoj I govoryat, kachayasya, czvety'. I lyubim my' lyubov`yu razdroblennoj I tixij shyopot verby' nad ruch`yom, I miloj devy' vzor, na nas sklonenny'j, I zvyozdny'j blesk, i vse krasy' vselennoj, I nichego my' vmeste ne sol`yom. No ne grusti, zemnoe minet gore, Pozhdi eshhyo, nevolya nedolga -- V odnu lyubov` my' vse sol`yomsya vskore, V odnu lyubov`, shirokuyu kak more, Chto ne [vmestyat]3 zemny'e berega.
