Novogrecheskaja pesnja

Language: Russian

 V temnom ade, pod zemlej, teni greshnyje tomjatsja;
 stonut devy, plachut zheny i toskujut, i krushatsja...
 Vsjo, vsjo o tom, chto ne dokhodjat vesti v adskije predely -
 zheny plachut, stonut: Jest' li nebo goluboje?
 Jest' li svet jeshchjo tam belyj!
 Jest' li v svete cerkvi bozh'ji i ikony zolotyje,
 i, kak prezhde, za stankami tkut li devy molodyje?
