Sizhu zadumchiv i odin
Language: Russian (Русский)
Sizhu zadumchiv i odin, Na potuxayushhij kamin Skvoz` slyoz glyazhu... S toskoyu my'slyu o by'lom I slov v uny'nii moyom Ne naxozhu. By'loe - by'lo li kogda? Chto ny'ne - budet li vsegda? Ono projdyot - Projdyot ono, kak vsyo proshlo, I kanet v temnoe zherlo Za godom god. Za godom god, za vekom vek... Chto zh negoduet chelovek, Sej zlak zemnoj! On by'stro, by'stro vyanet - tak, No s novy'm letom novy'j zlak I list inoj. I snova budet vsyo, chto est`, I snova rozy' budut czvest`, I terny' tozh... No ty', moj bedny'j, bledny'j czvet, Tebe uzh vozrozhden`ya net, Ne rasczvetesh`! Ty' sorvan by'l moej rukoj, S kakim blazhenstvom i toskoj, To znaet bog!... Ostan`sya zh na grudi moej, Poka lyubvi ne zamer v nej Poslednij vzdox.
