V teple zloe gore cvetet -- zeleneet, -- Kak budto ego solnce vešnee greet ... -- Ottajali slëzy i l'jutsja ključëm, -- A tam nad mogil'nym, sypučim bugrom, Berëzka stoit i v snegu kočeneet. No budet pora, cholod v dušu sojdët, I gore zastynet, kak budto zamrët... A tam, nad mogil'koj, poveet vesnoju, Berëzka očnëtsja i svežej listvoju Odenutsja dlinnye seti vetvej, I deti sbegutsja s cvetami sireni, I molča sojdutsja mogil'nye teni Vnimat' golosam bezzabotnych detej.
