by Aleksey Stepanovich Khomyakov (1804 - 1860)

Pesnya kazaka
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Vej sil`nee, vetr igrivy'j,
V bely'j parus chelnoka!
Ponesi nas v put` schastlivy'j,
Volga, svetlaya reka!

Ty' uznala nas - za nami
Pleshhut veselo strui,
I pomchalisya strelami
Nashi legkie lad`i.

Za tumannoyu goroyu
Skry'ty' desyat` korablej;
Tam vecherneyu poroyu
Budet sly'shen stuk mechej.

Zlato tam, drugie tkani,
Tam zamorskoe vino;
Sladko, bratcy', posle brani
Budet penit`sya ono!

Pel kazak: nad vlagoj yasnoj
Vzdulsya parus chelnoka,
I, kak grud` devicy' krasnoj,
Vskoly'xalasya reka.
