Dal Ty mne molodost' trudnuju. Stol'ko pechali v puti. Kak zhe mne dushu skudnuju Bogatoj Tebe prinesti? Dolguju pesnju, l'stivaja, O slave pojet sud'ba. Gospodi! ja neradivaja, Tvoja skupaja raba. Ni rozoju, ni bylinkoju Ne budu v sadakh Otca. Ja drozhu nad kazhdoj sorinkoju, Nad kazhdym slovom glupca.
