by Taras Hryhorovych Shevchenko (1814 - 1861)
Translation by Ivan Nikolayevich Zakharyn (1839 - 1906), as Ivan Nikolayevich Yakunin

Vo lesochek ja khodila po orekhi
Language: Russian (Русский)  after the Ukrainian (Українська) 
Vo lesochek ja khodila po orekhi,
Tam ja mel'nika ljubila dlja potekhi.
Mel'nik melet, prosevajet;
Menja krepko obnimajet
Dlja potekhi.

Po openki v les khodila ja ranen'ko,
Tam portnogo poljubila, moloden'ka.
Portnoj shapku doshivajet,
Menja krepko obnimajet,
Moloden'ku.

Vo lesochek ja khodila, i tam, snova,
Vstretiv bondarja, ljubila chernobrova.
Bondar' vedra nabivajet,
Menja krepko obnimajet,
Chernobrovu.

Koli khochesh' pravdu znati, moja mati,
Kogo imenno ty zjatem budesh' zvati,
V voskresen'e chut' smerknetsja,
Vsekh zjat'jami ikh pridetsja
Tebe zvati…
