Tebe, Kavkaz, surovy'j czar` zemli
Language: Russian (Русский)
Tebe, Kavkaz, surovy'j czar` zemli, YA posvyashhayu snova stix nebrezhny'j. Kak sy'na ty' ego blagoslovi I oseni vershinoj belosnezhnoj; Ot yuny'x let k tebe mechty' moi Prikovany' sud`boyu neizbezhnoj, Na severe — v strane tebe chuzhoj YA serdcem tvoj — vsegda i vsyudu tvoj. Eshhe rebenkom, robkimi shagami Vzbiralsya ya na gordy'e skaly', Uvity'e tumanny'mi chalmami, Kak golovy' poklonnikov ally'̀. Tam veter mashet vol`ny'mi kry'lami, Tam nochevat` sletayutsya orly', YA v gosti k nim letal mechtoj poslushnoj I serdcem by'l — tovarishh ix vozdushny'j. S tex por proshlo tyazhely'x mnogo let, I vnov` menya mezh skal svoix ty' vstretil. Kak nekogda rebenku, tvoj privet Izgnanniku by'l radosten i svetel. On prolil v grud` moyu zabven`e bed, I druzhno ya na druzhnij zov otvetil; I ny'ne zdes`, v polunochnom krayu, Vsyo o tebe mechtayu i poyu.
