by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)
Don
Language: Russian (Русский)
Bleshha sred` polej shirokix, Von on l`yotsya!.. Zdravstvuj, Don! Ot sy'nov tvoix dalyokix YA privyoz tebe poklon. Kak proslavlennogo brata, Reki znayut tixij Don; Ot Araksa i Evfrata YA privyoz tebe poklon. Otdoxnuv ot zloj pogoni, Chuya rodinu svoyu, P`yut uzhe donskie koni Arpachajskuyu struyu. Prigotov` zhe, Don zavetny'j, Dlya naezdnikov lixix Sok kipuchij, iskrometny'j Vinogradnikov tvoix.
