Uspenije
Language: Russian (Русский)
Jejo spelenutoje telo Slozhili v molodom lesu. Ono ot muk pomolodelo, Vernuv byvaluju krasu. Uzhe ne shumnyj i ne jaryj, S volnen'em, v szhatye persty V poslednij raz arkhangel staryj Vlagajet belye cvety. Zlatit dalekije vershiny Proshchal'nym otbleskom zarja, I nad tumanami doliny Vstajut usopshikh tri carja. Ikh privela, kak v dni bylye, Drugaja, pozdnjaja zvezda. I pastukhi, uzhe sedye, Kak vstar', sgonjajut s gor stada. I strazhej vechnomu pokoju Doliny zastupila mgla. Lish' mezh zvezdoju i zareju Zlatjatsja nimby bez chisla. A vyshe, po krutym ovragam Pojot ruchej, cvetet mindal', I nad otkrytym sarkofagom Mogil'nyj angel smotrit v dal'.
