by Anna Andreyevna Akhmatova (1889 - 1966)

,,Где, высокая, твой цыганенок
Language: Russian (Русский)

,,Где, высокая, твой цыганенок,
Тот, что плакал под черным платком,
Где твой маленький первый ребенок,
Что ты знаешь, что помнишь о нем?ъ

ъДоля матери - светлая пытка,
Я достойна её не была.
В белый рай растворилась калитка,
Магдалина сыночка взяла.

Каждый день мой - веселый, хороший,
Заблудилась я в длинной весне,
Только руки тоскуют по ноше,
Только плач его слышу во сне.

Станет сердце тревожным и томным,
И не помню тогда ничего,
Все брожу я по комнатам темным,
Все ищу колыбельку его.``
