Mne snilsia general Skobelev,

Tol'ko chto popavshij v tiur'mu.

Mne snilos', chto on govoril s vodoj,

I voda otvechala emu.

Derev'ia slushali ikh,

Vokrug byla pustota.

Byla vidna tol'ko ten' ot kruga,

I v nej byla ten' kresta.

Delo bylo na ostrove zhenshchin,

Iz zemli podnimalis' tsvety.

Vokrug nikh bylo Beloe more,

V more gromozdilis' l'dy.

Zhenshchiny stoiali vokrug nego,

Tonkie, kak topolia.

Nad ikh vetviami podnimalas' Luna,

I pod nogami molchala zemlia.

General oglianulsia vokrug i skazal:

"Prekratite vash smekh.

Dajte mne verevku i mylo,

I my sosh'em plat'ia dlia vsekh.

Nemnogo beresty na shapki,

Obuv' iz desiati tysiach trav;

Potom podkinem riabiny v ochag,

I my uvidim, kto iz nas prav."

Nikto ne skazal ni slova,

Vyvody byli iasny.

Poodal' krugom stoiali vse te,

Ch'i vzgliady byli chestny.

Ikh litsa byli riaby

Ot soznan'ia svoej pravoty;

Ikh pal'tsy pliasali balet na kurkakh,

I dushi ikh byli pusty.

Kakoj-to sluchajnyj prokhozhij

Skazal: "My vse zdes', vrode, svoi.

Puti Gospodni ne otmecheny v kartakh,

Na nikh ne byvaet GAI.

Mozhno verit' obshchestvu,

Mozhno verit' sud'be,

No esli ty khochesh' uznat' Zakon,

To ty uznaesh' ego v sebe."

Konvoj bespokojno zadvigalsia,

No prishedshij byl nevidim dlia nikh.

A general prodolzhal chinit' valenki,

Litso ego skrivilos' na krik.

On skazal: "V takie vremena, kak nashi,

Net mesta nenauchnoj liubvi", -

I ruki ego byli do loktej v zemlianike,

A mozhet byt' - po lokot' v krovi.

Mezhdu tem, kto-to riadom bil mukh,

Popal emu lozhkoj v lob.

Sobravshiesia skinulis',

Sobrali na prilichnyj grob.

Sviashchennik otpel ego,

Sud'ia prochital prigovor;

I sprava ot groba stoial predsedatel',

A sleva ot groba byl vor.

Ehtot sluchaj byl otmechen v annalakh,

No malo kto pisal o nem.

Tot, kto pisal, vspominal ob obshchestvennom,

Chashche vspominal o svoem.

A derev'ia prodolzhaiut slushat',

Gudit komarinaia gnus';

I zhenshchiny zhdut prodolzhen'ia besedy,

A ia zhdu, poka ia prosnus'.
