Широк и жёлт вечерний свет

by Anna Andreyevna Akhmatova (1889 - 1966)

Shirok i zhyolt vechernij svet

Language: Russian (Русский)

Shirok i zhyolt vechernij svet,
Nezhna aprel`skaya proxlada.
Ty' opozdal na mnogo let,
No vsyo-taki tebe ya rada.

Syuda ko mne poblizhe syad`,
Glyadi vesyoly'mi glazami:
Vot e`ta sinyaya tetrad` -
S moimi detskimi stixami.

Prosti, chto ya zhila skorbya
I solnczu radovalas` malo.
Prosti, prosti, chto za tebya
YA slishkom mnogix prinimala.
