Mež tremja morjami bašnja
Language: Russian (Русский)
Mež tremja morjami bašnja, V bašne krasnaja devica Nižet zvonkie červoncy Na serebrjanye niti. Vyšlo vsech dvenadcat' nitok. Povjazavši vse dvenadcat' -- Šest' na grud' i šest' na kosy, -- Vyzyvaet deva solnce: «[Solnce, vyd'! JA tože vyjdu! Solnce, gljan'! -- JA tože gljanu]1! Ot tebja -- luga povjanut, Ot menja -- serdca posochnut!»
