Kurica so dvora – Kalečina v vorotá. Zaberetsja Malečina v gibkij pleten', tonen'ko komarikom pěsnju zavedet, ždet: ne pokličet li kto Kalečiny pogadat' o večerě? U Kalečiny odna derevjannaja noga, u Malečiny odna derevjannaja ruka, u Kalečiny-Malečiny odin glaz – malen'kij, da udalen'kij. Kalečina-Malečina, skol'ko časov do večera? Skok Kalečina-Malečina s pletnja, podberetsja vsja – pryg-pryg-pryg – 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. Da jurk v pleten', prigorjunitsja, tonen'ko komarikom pěsenku vedet, ždet: ne pokličet li kto Kalečiny pogadat' o večerě? U Kalečiny sem' bratov – u Malečiny sem' větrov, a vos'moj nerodnoj – vichor' vitnoj – milen'kij, da postylen'kij. Kalečina-Malečina, skol'ko časov do večera? Večerom vryvaetsja krutit vichr' v lěsu, večerom Kalečině veselo v viru. Nočka po nebu lučinki zažžet, temnaja temnuju nitku prjadet… Kurica v vorotá, Kalečina so dvora.
