by Afanasy Afanas'yevich Fet (1820 - 1892)

На заре ты её не буди
Language: Russian (Русский) 
На заре ты её не буди,
На заре она сладко так спит;
Утро дышит у ней на груди,
Ярко пышет на ямках ланит.

И подушка её горяча,
И горяч утомительный сон,
И, чернеясь, бегут на плеча
Косы лентой с обеих сторон.

А вчера у окна ввечеру
Долго-долго сидела она
И следила по тучам игру,
Что, скользя, затевала луна.

И чем ярче играла луна,
И чем громче свистал соловей
Всё бледней становилась она,
Сердце билось больней и больней.

Оттого-то на юной груди,
На ланитах так утро горит.
Не буди ж ты её, не буди...
На заре она сладко так спит!
