Ptichka
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Pevun`ya ptichka den` porxaet,
A vecherom ko mne,
K oknu na vetku priletaet,
Poet mne v tishine.

Kak strojno v`yutsya pesen zvuki,
Kak chudno slushat` ix!
V nix est` i radosti, i muki,
Est` mnogo chuvstv svyaty'x.

V teni listov, na gibkoj vetke
Pevun`ya tak mila;
No mne xotelos` by', chtob v kletke
Ona pri mne by'la.

Ne dlya togo, chtob sladkoj voli
Ee navek lishit`;
No dlya togo, chtob i v nevole
Za nej ya mog xodit`.

Chtob s nej vsyu zhizn` ne rasstavat`sya,
Delit` s nej zhrebij moj,
I chtoby' eyu lyubovat`sya
Ne mog nikto drugoj.
