Dusha moja v plenu
Language: Russian (Русский)
Dusha moja v plenu, v plenu u tjazhkikh dum, u dnej bez radosti, u nochi bez rassveta! Ni mirnyj son polej, ni ulic pestryj shum ne budjat bol'she v nej sozvuchnogo otveta. Kuda, kuda bezhat'? Pustynen krugozor, znoj opalil jego dykhan'em mrachnoj skuki... I solnce, kak skvoz' dym, brosajet mertvyj vzor, i prizrachny, kak son, i radosti, i muki! Dusha moja v plenu! I grezitsja vdali jej kraj plenitel'nyj, volshebnyj kraj svobody, gde shumnyj zhizni pir, cvetushchij pir zemli, kipit, kak veshnije sverkajushchije vody... Duma moja v plenu, v plenu u tjazhkikh dum...
