by Yakov Petrovich Polonsky (1819 - 1898)

Pachnet polem vozduch čistyj
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Pachnet polem vozduch čistyj... 
V bezmjatežnoj tišine
Pesni ptički golosistoj
Razdajutsja v vyšine. 

Est' u nej svoja podruga,
Est' u nej prijut nočnoj,
Sred' nekošenogo luga,
Pod rosistoju travoj. 

V nebesach, no ne dlja neba,
Vsja polna živych zabot,
Dlja zemli, ne radi chleba,
Ptička veselo poët. 

Vnemlja ej, nevol'no stydno
I dosadno, čto poroj
Serdcu gordomu zavidna
Dolja ptički polevoj!
