Соловушка
 (Sung text for setting by A. Varlamov)

Language: Russian (Русский) 
Our translations:  ENG
Сладко пел душа-соловушко
В зелёном моём саду;
Много, много знал он песенок,
Слаще не было одной.

Ах! та песнь была заветная,
Рвала белу грудь тоской;
А всё слушать бы хотелося,
Не рассталась бы ввек с ней.

Вдруг подула со полуночи:
Будто на сердце легла, 
Снеговая непогодушка 
И садок мой занесла.
