by Nikolai Porfiryevich Grekov (1810 - 1866)

Ne tronu ja pečal' tvoju
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ne tronu ja pečal' tvoju nemuju voprosami:
Davno l' ona? O čëm?
JA grud' tvoju mečtoju ne vzvolnuju,
Ne razožgu mučitel'nym ognëm.

JA znaju: v nej svjatoe vdochnoven'e,
A gde ono, tam žizn' i neba sled,
Tam bytija zemnogo ob"jasnen'e
I gornego tainstvennyj obet.

No, syn zemli, dostupen ja zemnomu;
I u menja i slezy, slezy est',
I čuvstvu zdes', volnen'ju rokovomu,
Ne v silach ja, čtob čuvstva ne prinest'.

Puskaj drugoj styditsja ich i prjačet,
No est' li kto iz smertnych na zemli,
Čtob v ėtot mig, kak angel neba plačet,
Iz glaz ego zdes' slezy ne tekli?
