Uteshenije
Language: Russian (Русский)
Svetit mesjac; na kladbishche deva v chjornoj vlasjanice odinokaja stoit, i sleza ljubvi drozhit na gustoj jejo resnice. Net jego, na tom on svete; serdcu mysl' o njom uteshna: on dostalsja nebesam. budet chistyj angel tam - i ljubov' moja bezgreshna. Skorb' jejo k svjatomu liku bogomateri podvodit. On stoit v ogne luchej, i na devu iz ochej milost' tikhaja niskhodit. Pala deva pred ikonoj i bezmolvno upovan'ja ot prechistyja zhdala... i dushoju pereshla neprimetno v mir svidan'ja.
