by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)

Rifma
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ėcho, bessonnaja nimfa, skitalas' po bregu Peneja.
        Feb, uvidev eë, strastiju k nej vospylal.
Nimfa plod ponesla vostorgov vljublënnogo boga;
        Mež govorlivych najad, mučas', ona rodila
Miluju doč'. Eë prijala sama Mnemozina.
        Rezvaja deva rosla v chore bogin'-aonid,
Materi čutkoj podobna, poslušna pamjati strogoj,
        Muzam mila; na zemle Rifmoj zovëtsja ona.
