by Marina Ivanovna Tsvetaeva (1892 - 1941)

Mne nravitsya
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Mne nravitsya, chto vy' bol`ny' ne mnoj,
Mne nravitsya, chto ya bol`na ne vami,
Chto nikogda tyazhely'j shar zemnoj
Ne uply'vet pod nashimi nogami. 
Mne nravitsya, chto mozhno by't` smeshnoj -
Raspushhennoj - i ne igrat` slovami,
I ne krasnet` udushlivoj volnoj,
Slegka soprikosnuvshis` rukavami. 

Mne nravitsya eshhyo, chto vy' pri mne
Spokojno obnimaete druguyu,
Ne prochite mne v adovom ogne
Goret` za to, chto ya ne vas celuyu. 
Chto imya nezhnoe moyo, moj nezhny'j, ne
Upominaete ni dnyom, ni noch`yu - vsue... 
Chto nikogda v cerkovnoj tishine
Ne propoyut nad nami: allilujya! 

Spasibo vam i serdcem i rukoj
Za to, chto vy' menya - ne znaya sami! -
Tak lyubite: za moj nochnoj pokoj,
Za redkost` vstrech zakatny'mi chasami,
Za nashi ne-gulyan`ya pod lunoj,
Za solnce, ne u nas nad golovami,-
Za to, chto vy' bol`ny' - uvy'! - ne mnoj,
Za to, chto ya bol`na - uvy'! - ne vami!
