by Fyodor Ivanovich Tyutchev (1803 - 1873)

Pošli, gospod', svoju otradu
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Pošli, gospod', svoju otradu
Tomu, kto v letnij žar i znoj
Kak bednyj niščij mimo sadu
Bredet po žarkoj mostovoj;

Kto smotrit vskol'z' čerez ogradu
Na ten' derev'ev, zlak dolin,
Na nedostupnuju prochladu
Roskošnych, svetlych lugovin.

Ne dlja nego gostepriimnoj
Derev'ja sen'ju razroslis',
Ne dlja nego, kak oblak dymnyj,
Fontan na vozduche povis.

Lazurnyj grot, kak iz tumana,
Naprasno vzor ego manit,
I pyl' rosistaja fontana
Glavy ego ne osvežit.

Pošli, gospod', svoju otradu
Tomu, kto žiznennoj tropoj
Kak bednyj niščij mimo sadu
Bredet po znojnoj mostovoj.
