by Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792 - 1822)
Translation by Konstantin Dmitrevich Bal'mont (1867 - 1942)
K Mėri
Language: Russian (Русский) after the English
O, Mėri, moj dalekij drug,
Kak skučen bez tebja dosug.
Sižu odin, i v tišine
JA vižu vzor tvoj; snitsja mne
Ulybka jasnaja tvoja
I golos - pen'e solov'ja,
Svetlej, čem žemčug vešnich struj,
Nežnej, čem pervyj poceluj.
Vsja očarovana zemlja,
Cvetut Italii polja,
No ja, toskuja i ljubja,
Tveržu: mne grustno bez tebja:
Ty daleko... Pridi ko mne...
Kak mčitsja oblačko k lune,
Kak veter teplyj k morju l'net,
Kak mrak nočnoj rassveta ždet, -
K tebe iz t'my vzyvaju ja,
Zvezda večernjaja moja,
Pridi ko mne! Pridi ko mne!
[I]1 ėcho vtorit v tišine:
"Pridi ko mne!.."
