Листок
Language: Russian (Русский)
От дружной ветки отлученный, Скажи, листок уединенный, Куда летишь?.. ,,Не знаю сам; Гроза разбила дуб родимый; С тех пор по долам, по горам По воле случая носимый, Стремлюсь, куда велит мне рок, Куда на свете все стремится, Куда и лист лавровый мчится, И легкий розовый листок.``
