by Marina Ivanovna Tsvetaeva (1892 - 1941)

Palo prenizhe voln
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Palo prenizhe voln
Bremya dnevnoe.
Tixo vzoshli na xolm
Vechny'e - dvoe.

Tesno - plecho s plechom -
Vstali v molchan`e.
Dva - pod odnim plashhom -
Xodyat dy'xan`ya.

Zavtrashnix spyashhix vojn
Vozhd` - i vcherashnix,
Molcha stoyat dvojnoj
Chernoyu bashnej.

Zmiya mudrej stoyat,
Golubya krotche.
- Otche, voz`mi v nazad,
V zhizn` svoyu, otche!

Cherez vse nebo - dy'm
Voinstv Gospodnix.
Boretsya plashh, dvojny'm
Vzdoxom pripodnyat.

Revnost`yu vzor raz``yat,
Molit i ropshhet...
- Otche, voz`mi v zakat,
V noch` svoyu, otche!

Prazdnuya nochi vxod,
Dy'shat pusty'ni.
Tyazhko - kak spely'j plod -
Padaet: - Sy'ne!

Smolklo v svoem xlevu
Stado lyudskoe.
Na zolotom xolmu
Dvoe - v pokoe.
