Песня девушек
 (Sung text for setting by M. Gnesin)
 Matches base text
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Вот он, май, светлый май,
Вот он, светлый май!

Эй, хозяйка, ради Бога,
Не гони нас от порога,
Кошелек тугой нам дай!
Нам не есть, нам не пить,
Нам бы свечку засветить,
Пречистой Деве угодить!

Вот он, май, светлый май!
Вот он, светлый май!

Все поля полны пшеницей,
Иисус воздаст сторицей,
Жди спасенья, жди наград
За хлеба и виноград.
Христа молим, Бога молим,
Пусть Его святая воля
Вам подаст пресветлый рай!

Вот он, май, светлый май,
Вот он, светлый май!
