Dobry'j domovoj
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Noch`yu, kak v izbe vsyo spalo,
Dobry'j domovoj
S kazaka snyal pokry'valo,
Grud` zakry'l rukoj.
Poutru polna vsya xata,
Batraki prishli,
I za sol`, za ry'bu zlata
Mnogo prinesli.

Noch`yu, kak v izbe vsyo spalo,
Dobry'j domovoj
Tyanet s deda pokry'valo,
Grud` zakry'l rukoj.
Utro; starika tolkayut;
Vot prosnulsya on.
I o chyom zhe izveshhayut?
Vnuk emu rozhdyon.

Noch`yu, kak v izbe vsyo spalo,
Dobry'j domovoj
Tixo sdyornul pokry'valo
S devy' molodoj;
On ischez; stuchat u xaty',
Sonnuyu zovut.
Kto? Zachem? Krasavcza svaty'
Zhenixa vedut.

Kak ya by'l ditya, vsyo spalo,
Dobry'j domovoj
Snyal s dityati pokry'valo,
Grud` zakry'l rukoj.
Rannim rano, chut` zaryoyu
Stal vostok alet`,
YA banduru vzyal i stroyu,
Stal igrat` i pet`.
