by Aleksandr Nikolayevich Glebov (1803 - after 1853)

Unynie
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Kuda, kuda sokrylsja ty,
Vesel'ja luč neumolimyj?
I naslaždenija mečty
S toboj umčalis' nevidimy.
Duša zabyla, čem žila.
Ona znat' radost' razučilas'.
Nad žizniju pečal' i mgla,
Kak mrak gustoj, rasprostranilas'.

Sredi morej pod krovom tuč
Na čelnoke plovec bluždaet.
Emu vezde dnja vrednyj luč
Liš' dal' pustuju osveščaet.
Kak on, nadeždy lišena
Duša moja, ona unyla,
Ona ugrjuma i mračna,
Kak noč'ju chladnaja mogila.

Ej sčast'ja odičal privet,
Ljubov' v nej k žizni onemela.
Ej stal pustynnym skučnyj svet,
Ona k utecham ochladela.
No vozvratis' i ozari
Eë opjat', zemnaja radost',
Kak junyj luč zlatoj zari
Darit tvoren'ja utra sladost'!
