by Anna Andreyevna Akhmatova (1889 - 1966)
Pamyat` o solnce v serdce slabeet
Language: Russian (Русский)
Pamyat` o solnce v serdce slabeet, Zheltej trava. Veter snezhinkami rannimi veet Edva-edva. V uzkix kanalax uzhe ne struitsya - Sty'net voda. Zdes` nikogda nichego ne sluchitsya, - O, nikogda! Iva na nebe pustom rasplastala Veer skvoznoj. Mozhet by't`, luchshe, chto ya ne stala Vashej zhenoj. Pamyat` o solnce v serdce slabeet. Chto e`to? T`ma? Mozhet by't`! Za noch` prijti uspeet Zima.
