Ночь и даль седая, —

Language: Russian (Русский)

Our translations: CHI

Ночь и даль седая, —
‎В инее леса.
Звёздами мерцая,
‎Светят небеса.

Звёздный свет белеет,
‎И земля окрест
Стынет-цепенеет
‎В млечном свете звезд.

Тишина пустыни…
‎Чётко за горой
На реке в долине
‎Треснет лёд порой…

Метеор зажжётся,
‎Озаряя снег…
Шорох пронесётся —
‎Зверя лёгкий бег…

И опять — молчанье…
‎В бледной мгле равнин,
Затаив дыханье,
‎Я стою один.

星星

Language: Chinese (中文) after the Russian (Русский)

夜和灰色远方，——
霜满森林中。
天空闪闪发光
闪烁的星星。

星光变成白乳
‎周围的土地
变得寒冷麻木
‎星之白光里。

沙漠一片寂静…
‎显然山后面
在山谷的河中
冰裂不时现…

流星将会闪烁
照亮雪如昼…
沙沙声将飞过——
奔腾的野兽…

苍白黑暗平原…
又一阵沉默，
屏住呼吸黯然，
我独自站着。
