by Mikhail Yur'yevich Lermontov (1814 - 1841)
Волны катятся одна за другою
Language: Russian (Русский)
Волны катятся одна за другою
С плеском и шумом глухим;
Люди проходят ничтожной толпою
Также один за другим.
Волнам их воля и холод дороже
Знойных полудня лучей;
Люди хотят иметь души... и что же? —
Души в них волн холодней!
