K chemu?
Language: Russian (Русский)
K chemu bescel'no okhranjat' Svoi bylye vdokhnoven'ja? Uzhe na vsem — godov pechat', Sedykh vremen prikosnoven'ja. Stikhaj, zavetnaja pechal', Prosnulsja den', dokhnul stradan'em. Godov sedejushchaja dal' Pokryta mrakom i molchan'em. I dale v serdce ukhodi Ty, beznadezhnoje stremlen'e, Ne otravljaj i ne budi Menja, byloje vdokhnoven'e!
