by Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Blok (1880 - 1921)
Ne sly'shno shumu gorodskogo
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ne sly'shno shumu gorodskogo, Nad nevskoj bashnej tishina, I bol`she net gorodovogo — Gulyaj, rebyata, bez vina! Stoit burzhuj na perekrestke I v vorotnik upryatal nos. A ryadom zhmetsya sherst`yu zhestkoj Podzhavshij xvost parshivy'j pes. Stoit burzhuj, kak pes golodny'j, Stoit bezmolvny'j, kak vopros. I stary'j mir, kak pes bezrodny'j, Stoit za nim, podzhavshi xvost.
