by Daniil Maximovich Rathaus (1868 - 1937)

Zvezda blestyashhaya sorvalasya s nebes
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Zvezda blestyashhaya sorvalasya s nebes,
Mel`knuv na mig odin chertoyu zolotistoj.
Kuda letit ona? - za xolm, za tyomny'j les,
Il` suzhdeno propast` ej v vy'shine luchistoj?

Zhelanny'j, mily'j drug! Ne tak li nam s toboj
Toskoj izmuchenny'm, vdrug schast`e zasiyalo? -
Zvezdoj luchistoyu, blestyashheyu chertoj
Mel`knuv v dushistoj mgle, Bog vest` kuda propalo!
