Otčalila lodka… Čut' brezžil rassvet…
V ušach razdavalsja [proščal'nyj]1 privet,
Dyšal on neždannoju laskoj…
Svincovoe more šumelo krugom…
Vsë ėto mne kažetsja sladostnym snom,
Volšebnoj, nesbytočnoj skazkoj!

O net, to ne son byl! V dali goluboj
Dve belye čajki neslis' nad vodoj,
I serye tučki leteli, --
I vsë, čto skazat' ja ne mog, ne uspel,
Kipelo v duše... i vostok čut' alel,
I volny šumeli, šumeli!
