Plovcy'
Language: Russian (Русский)
Po reke, vniz po shirokoj, Po letyashhej by'strine, Iz otchizny' v kraj dalekij, Edet strannik po reke, Iz otchizny' v kraj dalekij, Edet strannik po reke. I toskuyushhemu mnitsya Mily'j bereg, kak mechta, V dal` tumannuyu vsyo mchitsya I uxodit navsegda. V dal` tumannuyu vsyo mchitsya I uxodit navsegda. Po reke shirokoj zhizni, Smertny'j k vechnosti ply'vet, I slezami ukorizny', Vremya by'stroe klyanet, I slezami ukorizny', Vremya by'stroe klyanet. Drug, naprasno! Chrez kormilo Posmotri na beg reki; Vremya tam zhe, gde i by'lo, A uxodim tol`ko my'. Vremya tam zhe, gde i by'lo, A uxodim tol`ko my'. Reka shumit, reka revet, Moj cheln o breg kremnisty'j b`et, Serdit i strashen govor voln… Prosti, moj drug! Leti, moj cheln! Leti, leti, nesis`, gulyaj! Moj drug, utesh`sya, ne ry'daj; Ne izmenyu v strane chuzhoj, I zdes`, i tam, vezde ya tvoj! I zdes`, i tam, vezde ya tvoj! I zdes`, i tam! Reka shumit, reka revet, Moj cheln o breg kremnisty'j b`et, Serdit i strashen govor voln… Prosti, moj drug! Leti, moj cheln!
