by Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Blok (1880 - 1921)
Vsjo, chto pamjat' sberech' mne starajetsja
Language: Russian (Русский)
Vsjo, chto pamjat' sberech' mne starajetsja, Propadajet v bezumnykh godakh, No gorjashchim zigzagom vzvivajetsja `Eta povest' v nochnykh nebesakh. Zhizn' davno sozhzhena i rasskazana, Tol'ko pervaja snitsja ljubov', Kak bescennyj larec perevjazana Nakrest lentoju aloj, kak krov'. I kogda v tishine mojej gornicy Pod lampadoj tomljus' ot obid, Sinij prizrak umershej ljubovnicy Nad kadilom mechtanij skvozit.
