by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)
Девицы, красавицы
Language: Russian (Русский)
Девицы, красавицы, Душеньки, подруженьки, Разыграйтесь, девицы, Разгуляйтесь, милые! Вы затяните песенку, Песенку заветную, Заманите молодца К хороводу нашему. Как заманим молодца, Как завидим издали, Разбежимтесь, милые, Закидаем вишеньем, Вишеньем, малиною, Красною смородиной. Не ходи подслушивать Песенки заветные.
