Kak pesnja materi
Language: Russian (Русский)
Kak pesnja materi nad kolybel'ju rebenka, kak gornoe ėcho, utrom na pastušij rožok otozvavšeesja, kak dalekij priboj rodnogo, davno ne vidennogo morja, zvučit mne imja tvoë triždy blažennoe: Aleksandrija! Kak preryvistyj šepot ljubovnych pod dubami priznanij, kak tainstvennyj šum tenistych rošč svjaščennych, kak tamburin Kibely velikoj, podobnyj dal'nemu gromu i golubej vorkovan'ju, zvučit mne imja tvoë triždy mudroe: Aleksandrija! Kak zvuk truby pered boem, klekot orlov nad bezdnoj, šum kryl'ev letjaščej Niki, zvučit mne imja tvoë triždy velikoe: Aleksandrija!
