by Konstantin Konstantinovich Romanov, Grand Duke of Russia (1858 - 1915), as K. R.

Спи в колыбели нарядной
 (Sung text for setting by V. Aloiz)
 See original
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Спи в колыбели нарядной,
Весь в кружевах и шелку,
Спи, мой сынок ненаглядный,
В теплом своем уголку!

В тихом безмолвии ночи
С образа, с грустью святой,
Божией Матери очи
Кротко следят за тобой.

Сколько участья во взоре
Этих печальных очей!
Словно им ведомо горе
Будущей жизни твоей.

Быстро крылатое время,
Час неизвестный пробьёт;
Примешь ты тяжкое бремя
Горя, трудов и забот.

 ... 

Тускло мерцает лампадка
Перед иконой святой…
Спи же беспечно и сладко,
Спи, мой сынок, дорогой!
