by Nikolay Alekseyevich von Ritter (1846 - 1919)

Yamshhik, ne goni loshadej!
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Kak grustno, tumanno krugom,
Toskliv bezotraden moj put`,
A proshloe kazhetsya snom,
Tomit nabolevshuyu grud`!

  Yamshhik, ne goni loshadej!
  Mne nekuda bol`she speshit`,
  Mne nekogo bol`she lyubit`, 
  Yamshhik ne goni loshadej!

Kak zhazhdu sred` mrachny'x ravnin
Izmenu zaby't` i lyubov`,
No pamyat`, moj zloj vlastelin,
Vse budit minuvshee vnov`!

  Yamshhik, ne goni loshadej, itd.

Vsyo by'lo lish` lozh` i obman...
Proshhaj, i mechty' i pokoj!
A bol` nezakry'vshixsya ran
Ostanetsya vechno so mnoj!

  Yamshhik, ne goni loshadej, itd.
