Текст песни Осип Мандельштам - Сохрани мою речь

Save my speech forever for the taste of misfortune and smoke,
For resin circular patience, for conscientiously labor.
So water in Novgorod wells should be black and molding,
In order for Christmas to be reflected in the star fins of the star.

And for this, my father, my friend and assistant my rude,
I am an unrecognizable brother, a decanner in a folk family, -
I promise to build such dense logs,
So that in them Tatarva lowered the princes on Badier.

If only they loved me these frozen fees -
As aiming the death of the towns are firmware in the garden, -
I'm going for all my life at least in the iron shirt
And for execution, for the execution of Petrovskaya in the forest, the Toponishch will find.

May 3, 1931. Khmelnitsky.
