U kamina
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ty sidish' [molchalivo]1 i smotrish' s toskoj, Kak pechal'no kamin dogorajet, [Kak v njom jarkoje plamja to]2 vspykhnet poroj, To bessil'no opjat' ugasajet. Ty grustish' vsjo o chjom? Ne o proshlykh li dnjakh, Polnykh negi, ljubvi i priveta? Tak chego zhe ty ishchesh' v sgorevshikh ugljakh? O [sebe]3 ne najti v nikh otveta. Podozhdi jeshchjo mig, i ne budet ognej, Chto tebja tak laskali i greli, I ostanetsja gruda lish' chernykh uglej, Chto sejchas dogoret' ne uspeli. O! pover', ved' ljubov' - `eto tot zhe kamin, Gde sgorajut vse luchshije grjozy. A pogasnet ljubov' - v serdce kholod odin, Vperedi zhe - stradan'ja i sljozy.
