He went on vacation. New day
Dispelled the morning banner,
But slowly descended shadow
In the flame extinguished.
He walked the paths of the fading
to death, - and to meet the new day.
they met, clashed,
And for a long time, long was slashing.
Holy flame claimed
In the abode of rest,
Victory banner developed, –
But fell with fear winner.
Then, sad and sad
Rises a new Lucifer:
In the victorious day with bated
Their right pobezhdennaya.
