by Arseny Arkad'yevich Golenishchev-Kutuzov (1848 - 1913)

Oryol
Language: Russian (Русский) 
V razdum`e, gordom i nemom,
Vperiv v prostranstvo vzor glubokij,
Oryol na kamne polevom
Sidel, kak strannik odinokij.

Kriklivy'x pticz vrazhdebny'j roj
Nad golovoj ego kruzhilsya,
I vixr`, vzmetaya prax zemnoj,
Krugom ispuganno nosilsya.

No nedvizhim pitomecz skal.
Ne vnemlya suetnomu shumu,
Oryol na kamne otdy'xal
I dumal czarstvennuyu dumu.

Kogda zh, ochnuvshis`, oglyanul
Ves` e`tot zhalkij mir bessil`ya,
Zatoskovav, on razvernul
Sedy'e, medlenny'e kry'l`ya.

I czar` poludenny'x vy'sot,
Sluchajny'j gost` zemli pechal`noj –
Napravil vol`ny'j svoj polyot
Za grani tuch, k lazuri dal`noj...

Vy'soko ot tshhety' zemnoj
Voznyossya, praxu nepodvlastny'j,
I, k dol`noj zhizni bezuchastny'j,
Ischeznul v bezdne goluboj.
