U kamina
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ty' sidish` [molchalivo]1 i smotrish` s toskoj, Kak pechal`no kamin dogoraet, [Kak v nyom yarkoe plamya to]2 vspy'xnet poroj, To bessil`no opyat` ugasaet. Ty' grustish` vsyo o chyom? Ne o proshly'x li dnyax, Polny'x negi, lyubvi i priveta? Tak chego zhe ty' ishhesh` v sgorevshix uglyax? O [sebe]3 ne najti v nix otveta. Podozhdi eshhyo mig, i ne budet ognej, Chto tebya tak laskali i greli, I ostanetsya gruda lish` cherny'x uglej, Chto sejchas dogoret` ne uspeli. O! pover`, ved` lyubov` - e`to tot zhe kamin, Gde sgorayut vse luchshie gryozy'. A pogasnet lyubov` - v serdce xolod odin, Vperedi zhe - stradan`ya i slyozy'.
