Zelënaja pričëska
Language: Russian (Русский)
Zelënaja pričëska, Devičeskaja grud', O tonkaja berëzka, Čto zagljadelas' v prud? Čto šepčet tebe veter? O čëm zvenit pesok? Il' chočeš' v kosy-vetvi Ty lunnyj grebešok? Otkroj, otkroj mne tajnu Tvoich drevesnych dum, JA poljubil -- pečal'nyj Tvoj predosennij šum. I mne v otvet berëzka: ,,O ljubopytnyj drug, Segodnja noč'ju zvezdnoj Zdes' slezy lil pastuch.`` Luna stelila teni, Sijali zelenja. Za golye koleni On obnimal menja. I tak, vdochnuvši glubko, Skazal pod zvon vetvej: ,,Proščaj, moja golubka, Do novych žuravlej.``
