Zeljonaja prichjoska
Language: Russian (Русский)
Zeljonaja prichjoska, Devicheskaja grud', O tonkaja berjozka, Chto zagljadelas' v prud? Chto shepchet tebe veter? O chjom zvenit pesok? Il' khochesh' v kosy-vetvi Ty lunnyj grebeshok? Otkroj, otkroj mne tajnu Tvoikh drevesnykh dum, Ja poljubil -- pechal'nyj Tvoj predosennij shum. I mne v otvet berjozka: ,,O ljubopytnyj drug, Segodnja noch'ju zvezdnoj Zdes' slezy lil pastukh.`` Luna stelila teni, Sijali zelenja. Za golye koleni On obnimal menja. I tak, vdokhnuvshi glubko, Skazal pod zvon vetvej: ,,Proshchaj, moja golubka, Do novykh zhuravlej.``
