by Apollon Nikolayevich Maykov (1821 - 1897)

Vesyoly'j chas
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ny'nche vesyol ya, piruyu!
Pazh moj, imenem lyubvi
Na besedu krugovuyu
Vsex druzej moix zovi!

Mily'j angel, syad` so mnoyu,
Lej mne zvezdnoe vino,
Rovno, tixo pust` strueyu
Ustanovitsya ono.

Posmotris` v prozrachnom kubke,
Kak blestyat volshebno v nyom,
Zvezdy'-ochi, rozy'-gubki,
Kosy' s mirtovy'm venkom.

By'lo vremya, e`tot kubok
Ozhivlen by'val poroj
Otrazhen`em aly'x gubok
Roz krasavicy' inoj.

Smushhenny'e eyo dy'xan`em,
V nyom strui ego lilis`,
No moim vospominan`em,
Mily'j drug, ne oskorbis`!
