by Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Blok (1880 - 1921)

Ona rosla za dal'nimi gorami
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ona rosla za dal'nimi gorami.
Pustynnyj dol — jej rodina byla
Nikto iz vas gorjashchimi glazami
Jee ne zrel — ona odna rosla.
I tol'ko lik bessmertnogo svetila -
Chto den' — smotrel na devstvennyj rascvet,
I, vlazhnyj zlak, ona k nemu vskhodila,
Ona v sebe khranila tajnyj sled.
I v smert' ushla, zhelaja i toskuja.
Nikto iz vas ne videl zdeshnij prakh…
Vdrug rascvela, v lazuri torzhestvuja,
V inoj dali i v nezemnykh gorakh.
I nyne vsja ovejana snegami.
Kto belyj khram, bezumcy, posetil?
Ona cvela za dal'nimi gorami,
Ona techet v rjadu inykh svetil.
