Ljudi dobrye, skazhite
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ljudi dobrye, skazhite, Ljudi dobrye, ne skrojte: Gde moj milyj? Vy molchite! Zluju l' tajnu vy khranite? Za daljokimi l' gorami On zhivjot odin, toskuja? Za stepjami l', za morjami Schastliv s novymi druz'jami? Vspominajet li poroju, Ch'ja ljubov' k nemu do groba? Il', zabyv menja, s drugoju Svjazan kljatvoj vekovoju? Il' uzh rannjaja mogila Prinjala jego v ob"jat'ja? Ch'ja zh sleza jejo kropila? Ch'ja dusha o njom grustila? Ljudi dobrye, skazhite, Ljudi dobrye, ne skrojte: Gde moj milyj? Vy molchite! Zluju tajnu vy khranite!
