Kavkaz! dalyokaya strana!
Language: Russian (Русский)
Kavkaz! dalyokaya strana! Zhilishhe vol`nosti prostoj! I ty' neschast`yami polna I okrovavlena vojnoj!.. Uzhel` peshhery' i skaly' Pod dikoj pelenoyu mgly' Usly'shat takzhe krik strastej, Zvon slavy', zlata i cepej?.. Net! proshly'x let ne ozhidaj, Cherkes, v otechestvo svoyo: Svobode prezhde mily'j kraj Primetno gibnet dlya neyo.
