Language: Russian (Русский)
Net, ne mogu ya zasnut`, i ne zhdat`, i smirit`sya, V serdce volnen`e rastyot i rastyot! Mozhet li veter svobodny'j komu pokorit`sya? Mozhet li zvyozd ne blistat` xorovod? Net, mne ne nuzhno pokoya, ne nuzhno zabven`ya, Esli zhe schast`ya nam ne dano, -- V more otchayan`ya, v tyomnuyu bezdnu muchen`ya Broshus` na samoe dno?
