Pesn` ratnika
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Chto ty', matushka, ry'daesh`,
Gor`ko plachesh` obo mne?
Ne navek zhe provozhaesh`,
YA ne sgibnu na vojne.

Chto vy', bratcy' i sestricy',
Utopaete v slezax?
I vy', krasny'e devicy',
Na menya nagnali strax?

Prizovu na pomoshh` boga,
Poklonyus` rodnoj strane,
A ub`yut, bedy' nemnogo,
Pogrustite obo mne!

YA za nashu Rus` svyatuyu
Pojdu smelo so shty'kom,
I obraduyu rodnuyu
YA Georg`evskim krestom.
