Prileti, moj solovej, Prileti, ljubimyj, ždu tebja. Net pokoja, žizni net bez tebja, ljubimyj, ždu tebja. Stonet serdce, grud' gorit moja. Prileti skorej, ždu tebja. O, Kerib, pevec vdochnovennyj, l'jutsa vdal' vse tvoi pesni, svoj udel ty postig sokrovennyj, v ėtom slavnyj tvoj venec. Vsja strana – otčizna tvoja, tvoj sad – živaja stryja, ty poëš', i vzory ljudej, zagorevšis', blešut živej, v nich svobody plameneet zarja! Nikogo ty v mire podlunnom ne strašiš'sa v mig pesnopen'ja. V nebe zvëzdy smejutsja, igraja, I nesëtsja k nim pesn' tvoja. Prileti, moj solovej… O, vernis' ko mne ljubov' moja!
