Колокола
 (Sung text for setting by R. Glière)
 Matches original text
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Несётся благовест... Как грустно и уныло
На стороне чужой звучат колокола.
Опять припомнился мне край отчизны милой,
И прежняя тоска на сердце налегла.

Я вижу север мой с его равниной снежной,
И словно слышится мне нашего села
Знакомый благовест: и ласково, и нежно
С далекой родины гудят колокола.
