by Aleksey Vasil'yevich Kol'tsov (1808 - 1842)

Duma sokola
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Dolgo l' budu ja
Sidnem doma zhit',
Moju molodost'
Ni za chto gubit'?

Dolgo l' budu ja
Pod oknom sidet',
Po dorozhke vdal'
Den' i noch' gljadet'?

Il' u sokola
Kryl'ja svjazany,
Il' puti jemu
Vse zakazany?

Il' boitsja on
V chuzhikh ljudjakh byt',
S sud'boj-machekhoj
Sam-soboju zhit'?

Dlja chego zh na svet
Gljadet' khochetsja,
Obletet' jego
Dusha prositsja?

Il' zachem ona,
Moja milaja,
Zdes' sidit so mnoj,
Sljozy l'jot rekoj;

Ot menja letit,
Pesnju mne pojot;
Vsjo rukoj manit!
Vsjo s soboj zovjot!

Net, uzh polno mne
Doma vek sidet',
Po dorozhke vdal'
Den' i noch' gljadet'!

So dvora pojdu,
Kuda put' lezhit,
A zhit' stanu tam,
Gde uzh Bog velit!

Confirmed with А. В. Кольцов, Полное собрание стихотворений, Ленинград, Советский писатель, 1958.
