by Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Blok (1880 - 1921)
Ty govorish', chto ja dremlju
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ty govorish', chto ja dremlju, Ty unizitel'no khokhochesh'. I ty menja zastavit' khochesh' Sto raz proiznesti: ljublju. Tvoj juzhnyj golos tomen. Stan Napominajet stan gazeli, A ja prishjol k tebe iz stran, Gde vechnyj sneg i voj meteli. Mne stranen val'sa legkij zvon I dushnyj oblak nad toboju. Ty dlja menja — [prekrasnyj]1 son, Skvozjashchij pyl'ju snegovoju… I ja bojus' tebja nazvat' Po imeni. Zachem mne imja? Daj mne trevozhno sozercat' Ochami zhadnymi moimi Tvoj juzhnyj blesk, zabytyj mnoj, Napominajushchij naprasno Den' uletevshij, den' prekrasnyj, Ubityj noch'ju snegovoj.
