Lesnaja tish'
Language: Russian (Русский)
Lesnaja tish', lesnaja tish'! Kakoj otradoj vejesh' ty! Kakim vsesil'nym volshebstvom Ty budish' grezy i mechty! V glukhoj teni zhivykh vetvej Ruchej tainstvenno zhurchit, I solnca luch, kak by skvoz' son, Jedva trepeshchet i skol'zit. Jedva trepeshchet i skol'zit... O chjom-to shepchet veterok, I list'ja shepchut mezh soboj. Uzh ne smejotsja l' legkij sil'f Za toj razvesistoj sosnoj? Vdrug chistyj zvon, kak by volnoju, Ob"emlet les, nedvizhnyj les! Vdrug chistyj zvon, kak by volnoju, Ob"emlet les, nedvizhnyj les! I vyshe, vyshe vse vzletajet, I vyshe, vyshe vse vzletajet I v glubine nebes ischez!
