by Anna Andreyevna Akhmatova (1889 - 1966)

Синий вечер. Ветры кротко стихли
Language: Russian (Русский)

Синий вечер. Ветры кротко стихли,
Яркий свет зовет меня домой.
Я гадаю: кто там? - не жених ли, 
Не жених ли это мой?..

На террасе силуэт знакомый,
Еле слышен тихий разговор.
О, такой пленительной истомы
Я не знала до сих пор.

Тополя тревожно прошуршали,
Нежные их посетили сны.
Небо цвета вороненой стали,
Звезды матово-бледны.

Я несу букет левкоев белых.
Для того в них тайный скрыт огонь,
Кто, беря цветы из рук несмелых,
Тронет теплую ладонь.
