by Sergei Aleksandrovich Esenin (1895 - 1925)

Слышишь ‑ мчатся сани
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Our translations:  ENG
Слышишь — мчатся сани, слышишь — сани мчатся.
Хорошо с любимой в поле затеряться.

Ветерок веселый робок и застенчив,
По равнине голой катится бубенчик.

Эх вы, сани, сани! Конь ты мой буланый!
Где-то на поляне клен танцует пьяный.

Мы к нему подъедем, спросим — что такое?
И станцуем вместе под тальянку трое.
