by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)

On mezhdu nami zhil
Language: Russian (Русский) 
On mezhdu nami zhil
Sred' plemeni jemu chuzhogo; zloby
V dushe svojej k nam ne [pital, i my]1
Jego ljubili. Mirnyj, blagosklonnyj,
On poseshchal besedy nashi. S nim
Delilis' my i chistymi mechtami
I pesnjami (on vdokhnoven byl svyshe
I svysoka vziral na zhizn'). Neredko
On govoril o vremenakh grjadushchikh,
Kogda narody, raspri pozabyv,
V velikuju sem'ju sojedinjatsja.
My zhadno slushali po`eta. On
Ushjol na zapad — i blagosloven'em
Jego my provodili. No teper'
Nash mirnyj gost' nam stal vragom — i [jadom
Stikhi svoi, v ugodu]2 cherni bujnoj,
[On napojajet. Izdali do nas
Dokhodit]3 golos zlobnogo po`eta,
[Znakomyj golos]4!.. [Bozhe! osvjati
V njom serdce pravdoju tvojej i mirom,
I vozvrati jemu...]5
