Xotel by' ya razlit`sya v mire, Xotel by' s solncem v nebe tech`, Zvezdoyu v sumrachnom e`fire Nochnoj svetil`nik svoj zazhech`. Xotel by' zy'biyu steklyannoj Igrat` v bezdonnoj glubine Ili luchom zari rumyanoj Skol`zit` po pleshhushhej volne. Xotel by' s tuchami skitat`sya, Tumanom vit`sya mezh xolmov Il` bujny'm vetrom razy'grat`sya V sedy'x izgibax oblakov; Zhit` lastochkoj pod nebeami, K czvetam laskat`sya moty'l`kom Ili nad dikimi skalami Nosit`sya derzostny'm orlom. Kak sladko by'lo by' v prirode To zhizn` i radost` razlivat`, To v gromax, vixryax, nepogode Prostranstvo neba obtekat`!
