Ptička
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Pevun'ja ptička den' porchaet,
A večerom ko mne,
K oknu na vetku priletaet,
Poet mne v tišine.

Kak strojno v'jutsja pesen zvuki,
Kak čudno slušat' ich!
V nich est' i radosti, i muki,
Est' mnogo čuvstv svjatych.

V teni listov, na gibkoj vetke
Pevun'ja tak mila;
No mne chotelos' by, čtob v kletke
Ona pri mne byla.

Ne dlja togo, čtob sladkoj voli
Ee navek lišit';
No dlja togo, čtob i v nevole
Za nej ja mog chodit'.

Čtob s nej vsju žizn' ne rasstavat'sja,
Delit' s nej žrebij moj,
I čtoby eju ljubovat'sja
Ne mog nikto drugoj.
