На севере диком стоит одиноко
Language: Russian (Русский) after the German (Deutsch)
На севере диком стоит одиноко На голой вершине сосна, И дремлет, качаясь, и снегом сыпучим [Одета, как ризой, она]1. И снится ей всё, что в пустыне далёкой, В том крае, где солнца восход, Одна и грустна на утёсе горючем Прекрасная пальма растёт.

In the wild north a pine tree stands...
Language: English after the Russian (Русский)
In the wild north a pine tree stands alone On the bare top of a mountain. It slumbers and sways, covered with Powdery snow like a mantle. And it dreams constantly: that in faraway wilds In the land where the sun rises, A cheerless and lovely palm stands alone, Growing on a gloomy cliff.
