by Mikhail Alekseyevich Kuzmin (1872 - 1936)

Kak lyublyu ya, vechny'e bogi
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Kak lyublyu ya, vechny'e bogi,
prekrasny'j mir!
Kak lyublyu ya solnce, trostniki
i blesk zelenovatogo morya
skvoz` tonkie vetvi akacij!
Kak lyublyu ya knigi (moix druzej),
tishinu odinokogo zhilishha
i vid iz okna
na dal`nie dy'nny'e ogorody'!
Kak lyublyu pestrotu tolpy' na ploshhadi,
kriki, pen`e i solnce,
vesely'j smex mal`chikov, igrayushhix v myach!
Vozvrashhen`e domoj
posle vesely'x progulok,
pozdno vecherom,
pri pervy'x zvezdax,
mimo uzhe osveshhenny'x gostinicz
s uzhe dalekim drugom!
Kak lyublyu ya, vechny'e bogi,
svetluyu pechal`,
lyubov` do zavtra,
smert` bez sozhalen`ya o zhizni,
gde vsyo milo,
kotoruyu lyublyu ya, klyanus` Dionisom,
vseyu siloyu serdcza
i miloj ploti!
