Гадание на картах
 (Sung text for setting by A. Dyubyuk)
 Matches base text
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Помню я, старушка няня
Мне в рождественской ночи
Про судьбу мою гадала
При мерцании свечи.
И на картах выходили
Интересы да почет.
Няня, няня, ты ошиблась,
Обманул тебя расчет.
Но зато я так влюбился,
Что приходится невмочь.

Погадай мне, друг мой няня,
Нынче святочная ночь.
Что? Не будет ли свиданья,
Разговоров ли, письма?
Выйдет пиковая дама
Иль бубновая сама?
Няня добрая гадает,
Грустно голову склоня;
Свечка тихо догорает,
Сердце бьется у меня.
