by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)
Don
Language: Russian (Русский)
Bleshcha sred' polej shirokikh, Von on l'jotsja!.. Zdravstvuj, Don! Ot synov tvoikh daljokikh Ja privjoz tebe poklon. Kak proslavlennogo brata, Reki znajut tikhij Don; Ot Araksa i Jevfrata Ja privjoz tebe poklon. Otdokhnuv ot zloj pogoni, Chuja rodinu svoju, P'jut uzhe donskije koni Arpachajskuju struju. Prigotov' zhe, Don zavetnyj, Dlja najezdnikov likhikh Sok kipuchij, iskrometnyj Vinogradnikov tvoikh.
