Zhavoronok

Mezhdu nebom i zemljoj pesnja razdajotsja,
Neiskhodnoju strujoj gromche gromche ljotsja.
Ne vidat' pevca polej gde pojot tak gromko
Nad podruzhen'koj svojej zhavoronok zvonkij.

Veter pesenku nesjot, a komu, ne znaet.
Ta komy, ona pojmjot, ot kovo, uznajet!
Lejcja, pesenka moja pesn' nadezhdy sladkoj
Kto-to vspomnit pro menja i vzdokhnjot ukradkoj.
