Bezumnaya
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Menya zhestokie branyat,
Menya bezumnoj nazy'vayut,
Spokojnoj, smirnoj by't` velyat,
Molit`sya bogu zastavlyayut.
O, zdes`, daleko ot svoix…
Pokoj bezhit ochej moix;
V chuzhoj, ugryumoj storone
Net sil molit`sya bogu mne! 

No bud` ya tam, gde Don rodnoj
Shumit znakomy'mi volnami,
Gde terem otcheskij, prostoj
V teni taitsya pod dubami,
Tam stanu ya pokoya zhdat`,
Tam stanu boga umolyat`,
Chtob, szhalyas` nad toskoj moej,
On mne konecz poslal skorej.

O, kak mne, bednoj, ne tuzhit`!
Ty', radost`, i menya manila;
I ya sbiralas` v svete zhit`,
By'la mila emu, lyubila,
I v cerkov` bozh`yu vsya v czvetax
Poshla s rumyancem na shhekax;
I pomnyu to, chto s zhenixom
I ya stoyala pod venczom.

No gibnet radost` navsegda;
K bede, k slezam ya probudilas`, —
I yasnaya lyubvi zvezda
V krovavom oblake zatmilas`!
Sokry'lsya moj privetny'j svet,
Ego ishhu — ego uzh net!
Ax, uletaya, angel moj,
Chto ne vzyal ty' menya s soboj!
