Noch`
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Izglozhet, glozhet stvol tyazhely'j veter
Zhadny'j;
Prov`etsya veyan`em, listvoj proshelestit:
"Zabud` –
Ee zabud`!.."

Glushi, gluxaya noch`! Glotaya temen`
Xladny'j,
Bezropotnaya grud` bezropotno molchit –
Zabud` –
Ee zabud`.

O, esli b mglisty'j les vskipel moej
Pechal`yu!
O, esli b mglisty'j les vskipel moej
Mol`boj, –
Togda – ...
(Da, znayu ya...).

Molchu: nemoj molchu. Nemoj stoyu
Nad dal`yu.
Da: ya sklonyus`, up`yus` toboj, odnoj
Toboj –
Togda...
Da, znayu ya...

Tam – smert`, tam – noch`: ty' – tam, za gran`yu
Rokovoyu.

YA smert` toboj, ya zhizn` blagoslovlyu
Toboj –
Zasni:
Zasni i ty'...

O, esli b –
Mglisty'j les vskipel svoej
Listvoyu,
O, esli b –
Mglisty'j les vskipel svoej
Mol`boj:

"Zasni, –
Zasni i ty'! –
I ty'!.."

Slepi,
Slepaya smert`!
Glushi,
Gluxaya noch`!..
