Sleza
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Chto nuzhno odinokoj
Sleze v glazax moix?
Ona odna ostalas`
Kak pamyat` let by'ly'x.
Sester ej by'lo mnogo...
Oni vse rasteklis`;
Muchitel`ny'e nochi
Vse vetrom razneslis`.

I kak tuman, ischezli
Vse zvezdochki moi,
Chto radost` v serdce lili
S stradan`yami lyubvi.
I slovno par dy'xan`ya,
Proshla lyubov`-groza,
Zachem zhe ty' ostalas`,
Minuvshix let sleza?
