by Lev Aleksandrovich Mey (1822 - 1862)

Zapevka
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ox, pora tebe na volyu, pesnya russkaya,
Blagovestnaya, pobednaya, razdol`naya,
Pogorodnaya, posel`naya, popol`naya,
Nepogodoyu-nevzgodoyu povitaya,
Vo krovi, v slezax kreshhenaya-omy'taya!
Ox, pora tebe na volyu, pesnya russkaya!
Ne sama soboyu ty' spelasya-slozhilasya:
S pusty'rej tebya namy'lo snegom-dozhdikom,
Naneslo tebya s pozharishh dy'mom-kopot`yu,
Namelo tebya s sy'ry'x mogil metelicej.
