Den` i noch`
Language: Russian (Русский)
Na mir tainstvenny'j duxov, Nad e`toj bezdnoj bezy'myannoj, Pokrov nabroshen zlatotkany'j Vy'sokoj voleyu bogov. Den` - sej blistatel`ny'j pokrov - Den`, zemnorodny'x ozhivlen`e, Dushi bolyashhej iscelen`e, Drug chelovekov i bogov! No merknet den` - nastala noch`; Prishla, i s mira rokovogo Tkan` blagodatnuyu pokrova Sorvav, otbrasy'vaet proch`... I bezdna nam obnazhena S svoimi straxami i mglami, I net pregrad mezh ej i nami - Vot otchego nam noch` strashna!
