by Konstantin Mikhailovich Fofanov (1862 - 1911)
Byl večer blednyj i syroj
Language: Russian (Русский)
Byl večer blednyj i syroj. Derev'ja v dremotnoj pečali Listy poslednie ronjali, I polumesjac zolotoj Mež oblakov kudrjavych mirno, Kak čeln, skol'zil vo mgle ėfirnoj. Cvetov obvetrivšichsja chor Sledil v agonii za tučej, - I prinimal ich robkij vzor Padučij list za meteor I meteor - za list padučij! JA byl odin v tiši allej, I v tajnike duši moej, Kazalos', junost' umirala; Ona proščalasja so mnoj I umirajuščej zarej Menja teplo blagoslovljala. Poslednich lask, poslednich neg JA ot nee prosil, rydaja, Kak pervobytnyj čelovek U vrat poterjannogo raja.
