Kak ot vetki rodnoj
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Kak ot vetki rodnoj list osennij poroj,
Otorvavšis', po vetru letaet;
Kak luč blednyj luny nad lazur'ju volny
Po večernej zare dogoraet,

Tak i žizn' zdes' moja vse grustnej den' ot dnja,
Vdal' bezbrežnym potokom nesëtsja,
Tak i serdce moë na čužoj storone
V prach bez milych emu raspadëtsja.

O! Pokin'te menja, razljubite menja
Vy, nadeždy, mečty zolotye,
Už mne vami ne žit', mne vas ne s kem delit', -
JA odin, a krugom vse čužie!

Mnogo muk vyznal ja, byl i drug u menja,
No uvy! My ne dolgo s nim žili;
Tam pod černoj sosnoj, nad šumjaščej rekoj
Druga spat' navsegda uložili.

Iz tolpy junych dev mne odnoj liš' napev
V dušu sladostnej vsech zaronilsja,
No moj perl zolotoj raz blesnul predo mnoj,
Daleko, daleko ukatilsja.

I s tech por ja grušču, s toj pory ne syšču
JA nigde i ni  v čem utešen'ja!
I v duše li groza, na očach li sleza,
Mne nikto ne darit sožalen'ja.
