by Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Blok (1880 - 1921)
Ty govoriš', čto ja dremlju
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ty govoriš', čto ja dremlju, Ty unizitel'no chochočeš'. I ty menja zastavit' chočeš' Sto raz proiznesti: ljublju. Tvoj južnyj golos tomen. Stan Napominaet stan gazeli, A ja prišël k tebe iz stran, Gde večnyj sneg i voj meteli. Mne stranen val'sa legkij zvon I dušnyj oblak nad toboju. Ty dlja menja — [prekrasnyj]1 son, Skvozjaščij pyl'ju snegovoju… I ja bojus' tebja nazvat' Po imeni. Začem mne imja? Daj mne trevožno sozercat' Očami žadnymi moimi Tvoj južnyj blesk, zabytyj mnoj, Napominajuščij naprasno Den' uletevšij, den' prekrasnyj, Ubityj noč'ju snegovoj.
