Что ты клонишь над водами,
Ива, макушку свою?
И дрожащими листами,
Словно жадными устами,
Ловишь беглую струю?
Хоть томится, хоть трепещет
Каждый лист твой над струей...
Но струя бежит и плещет,
И, на солнце нежась, блещет,
И смеётся над тобой...

为什么弯腰向水面，
柳树，你的树梢头？
和你那颤抖的叶片，
就像嘴唇渴得发干，
你可想赶上水流？
虽然憔悴，虽然发颤
叶子都在溪流上面……
但是河流奔腾飞溅，
沐浴阳光，明亮灿然，
还对你露出了笑颜...
