Dlya beregov otchizny' dal`noj ty' pokidala kraj chuzhoj; v chas nezabvenny'j, v chas pechal`ny'j ya dolgo plakal [pred]1 toboj. [Moi xladeyushhie ruki tebya staralis` uderzhat`; tomlen`ya strashnogo razluki moj ston molil ne prery'vat`.]2 No ty' ot [gor`kogo]3 lobzan`ya [svoi]4 usta otorvala; iz kraya [mrachnogo]5 izgnan`ya ty' v kraj inoj menya zvala. Ty' govorila: ,,V [den`]6 svidan`ya, pod nebom vechno goluby'm, v teni oliv ly'ubvi lobzan`ya my' vnov`, [moj drug]7, soedinim.`` No tam, uvy', gde neba svody' siyayut v bleske golubom, gde pod skalami dremlyut vody', [usnula]8 ty' poslednim snom. Tvoya krasa, tvoi stradan`ya ischezli v urne grobovoj, [a s nim]9 i poceluj svidan`ya... No zhdu ego: on za toboj!
