Tjažela, bescvetna i pusta
Language: Russian (Русский)
Tjažela, bescvetna i pusta Nadmogil'naja plita. Imja sterto, daže ryžij moch Iskrivilsja i zasoch. Margaritki belen'kij cvetok Doživaet kratkij srok. Iva naklonila na skam'ju Ten' drožaščuju svoju, Šelestom staraetsja skazat' Prochodjaščemu: ,,Prisjad'!`` Vdaleke, za serebrom rakit, Serebro reki blestit. Szadi - staroj cerkvi vyšina, V zemlju vrosšaja stena. Nad travoj nemejuščich mogil Veter vejal, i zastyl. Zastyvaja, prošeptal v teni: ,,Byli buri. Son nastal. Usni!``
