by Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky (1821 - 1881)

Здравствуй, здравствуй, гувернантка!
NOTE: the footnotes have been removed from this text; return to general view
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Здравствуй, здравствуй, гувернантка!
Веселись и торжествуй,
Ретроградка иль жорж-зандка,
Всё равно теперь ликуй!

...

Учишь ты детей сопливых
По-французски букварю
И подмигивать готова,
Чтобы взял, хоть понмарю!
 
...

Но в наш век реформ великих
Не возьмет и пономарь;
Надо, барышня, ,,толиких``,
Или снова за букварь.

...
 
Но теперь, когда, пируя,
Мы собрали капитал,
И приданое, танцуя,
Шлём тебе из этих зал, --
 
Ретрогадка иль жорж-зандка,
Всё равно теперь ликуй!
Ты с приданым, гувернантка,
Плюй на всё и торжествуй!
