Zdes`, podrugi, k svetloj celi          
my' odnoj tropoyu shli,			        
Zdes`, kak v mirnoj koly'beli, 	        
dni mladenchestva leteli, 		        
gody' yuny'e bezmyatezhno tekli.	            

Lish` segodnya my' (ny'ne) uznali,	        
kak mila rodnaya sen` o dne mechtali,     
no otny'ne dnyom pechali			        
budem zvat` razluki den`!		        

Voveki serdce ne zabudet 		        
tebe, zavetny'j nash priyut.		        
Ves` mir dlya nas chuzhbinoj budet,        
a rodimy'm domom institut,		        
mirny'j institut.			            

Puskaj streloyu mchitsya vremya,	        
my' budem kazhdy'j den` i chas		        
dushoyu blagodarnoj s temi,		        
kto zdes` rastil s lyubov` nas.	        

V serdce detskix let xranimoj, 	        
mat` Otchizna, obraz tvoj		        
nash oplot nepobedimy'j,	                
novy'x sil rodnik zhivoj!		            

V razluke kto iz nas zabudet 		    
Nevinny'x radostej priyut? 		        
Nam burny'j svet chuzhbinoj budet,         
Otchiznoj - mirny'j institut!	            

Dal` raskry'ta pered nami,		        
zhdut nas volya, trud, bor`ba;		    
k schast`yu razny'mi putyami		        
nam velit idti sud`ba.			        

Bespokojno zhizni more,		            
dni gryadushhego temny',			        
no i v radosti, i v gore			    
budem druzhbe my' verny'.		            

Chto zh, podrugi, nas trevozhit?	        
My' rosli odnoj sem`yoj,		            
druzhba v zhizni nam pomozhet	            
s chest`yu put` projti lyuboj!
