Kak velit prostaja učtivost'
Language: Russian (Русский)
Available translation(s): FRE
Kak velit prostaja učtivost', Podošel ko mne. Ulybnulsja, Polulaskovo, polulenivo Poceluem ruki kosnulsja. I zagadočnych, drevnich likov Na menja pogljadeli oči... Desjat' let zamiranij i krikov, Vse moi bessonnye noči JA vložila v tichoe slovo I skazala ego naprasno. Otošel ty, i stalo snova Na duše i pusto i jasno.
