by Vasili Ivanovich Krasov (1810 - 1854)

Za rekoju, za desnoj
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Za rekoju, za Desnoj,
Est' šinkaročka odna,
U šinkarki molodoj
Mnogo medu i vina.

I k nej s utrennej zari
Naezžajut molodcy,
I guljajut do zari
Iz Černigova kupcy.

K nej obozy pristajut,
Nalivajutsja kovši,
I tancujut, i pojut
U šinkaročki-duši.

Ali med u nej inoj,
Ali vodka veselej,
Čto u Sary molodoj
Polon dvor šumit gostej?

Net, k šinkarke molodoj
Ručki belye manjat,
Pod puncovoju čalmoj
Oči černye gorjat;

Slyšno, gorek sladkij med,
Esli net ee rečej:
Tak za tem-to ves' narod
Privoračivaet k nej.
