Poem as a gift

Vasily Zhukovsky
To poetry
Wonderful gift of the gods!
About fiery hearts fun and love
About the beauty quiet, soul charming -
Poetry! With you
And sorrow, and poverty, and gloomy exile -
Lose your horror!
In the shade of the oak, over the flow,
Friend friend, with a clear shower,
In the wretched hut for his
Forgetting rock, rocked rock, -
Sings, dreams and - Blessed!
And who, and who is not animated
Your Divine Influence?
Tsiewnitsa is a thoughtful blyazan
Laplanders, wild son of snow,
His misty depression glorifies
And inexperial harmony of poems,
Looking at stormy trees, depicts
And smoky your shala, and the chlad, and the noise of the seas,
And quick running sled
Flying on snow with Plena Raptive.
Happy lots of poor
Ostay, leaning on the plow,
Emptied by slowly with tired oxen -
Sings his forest, his peace meadow,
WHO VERY SRIYS
And the sweetness of winter evenings
When, with the noise of the blizzard, before the focus is brilliant,
In the circle of your sons,
With a drink foam and boiling,
He pours joy in the heart
And peacefully at midnight falls asleep,
Forgetting to the wild brazdes spilled sweat ...
But you who raise heavenly revitalizes
Singers, my soul friends!
In the sad journey of the minute life of this
Torny laze with flowers sleep
And in the ardent hearts, pour your flame!
Yes the sound of your loud lir
The hero, to the glory of the awaken,
Divit and shock the world!
Yes, youth inflamed
From them in delight of tears pour,
Altar of the Fatherland Lobziet
And death for him, as good, expects!
Yes poor worker souls bloom
From your grace songs!
But yes your thunder will hit
In these brutal and depraved,
Which, in shame, with an elevated man,
Innocence, valor and honor, I definitely,
Dare to magnify yourself with demigods! -
Friends of the Heavenly Muses! Pleny a fuss?
Quite minute successes -
Signless praise, kimvalny ringing
empty, -
Despite luxury joy,
Let's go great in the footsteps! -
The path to the immortality of fate is open to us!
Do not coole yourself praise
High pyrote, contemptuous soul, -
Dry itemed to grind!
FaBov's favority for the ghost to chase?
Pet fesbov in a prayer
And the humiliation of Fortune is seduced?
The offspring distributes the crowns and the Ambassador:
Daring your mausoleum into the altar to convert!
Oh glory, hearts admiring!
About the lot sweet - in love
The offspring to live!
