 (Sung text)

Language: Russian (Русский) 
Щука шла из Новогорода: Слава!
Она хвост волокла из Белаозера. Слава!
Как у щуки чешуика серебрянная, Слава!
Что серебрянная, позолоченная, Слава!
Как у щуки спина жемчугом сплетена. Слава!
Как головка у щуки унизанная. Слава!
Она место глаз дорогой алмаз. Слава!

Уж, как вышло пузище на репище. 
Слава! Слава!
Вынесло пузище осмину вшеы.

Осмину вшеы пол осмины блох, 
Слава! Слава! Слава! Слава!
