Tikha i molchaliva.
Molchanije pugajet vas,
Kromeshniki tolpy vsejadnoj!
Skromna, nasmeshliva, pozhaluj?
Pozhaluj, da! nu chto-zhe?

Ne slishkom uzh gorda-li, polno?
I vy, lukavcy zhalkije,
Vy smejete podnjat'sja
I brosit' obvinen'e!

Molchite! Ja skazal:
Molchite, kak ona molchit,
I slushajte stuk molota
Po vashej sovesti okameneloj!
