Duchi neba, dajte mne
Language: Russian (Русский)
Duchi neba, dajte mne Kryl'ja sokola skorej! JA v polnočnoj tišine Poleču v ob"jat'ja k nej! Sladostrastnymi rukami Krugom šei obov'jus', Eë čërnymi glazami Zaljubujus', zagljažus'! Bezzabotno k grudi polnoj, Kak pčela k cvetku, pril'nu, Sladostrast'em [usyplennoj]1, Besprobudno ja zasnu.
