An expert guilty gaze ,
Holds the young shoulders !
Tamed male dangerous temper ,
Does not sound drowned - speech.
There are fish , rdeya fins
Fanning the gills : on , take it!
They silently ohayuschih mouths
Poluhlebom flesh feed .
We do not fish red and gold ,
Our custom nursing as follows:
In the heat of the body thin ribs
And in vain wet shine pupils.
Poppy edge labeled a dangerous path ...
What am I , as the Janissaries , Telegram
This tiny , fly - red,
This miserable crescent lips ? ..
Do not be angry , dear Turk :
I'm with you in a remote bag zashyus ,
Your speech dark swallowing ,
For you curve of water drunk .
You , Mary, - perishing leg-up ,
It is necessary to prevent death - sleep.
I stand at your doorstep.
Go away, go away, another Tarry .
