Language: Russian (Русский)
Grečanka vernaja! ne plač', — on pal geroem,
Svinec vraga v ego vonzilsja grud'.
Ne plač' — ne ty l' emu sama pred pervym boem
Naznačila krovavyj Česti put'?
Togda, tjaželuju predčuvstvuja [razluku],
Suprug tebe proster toržestvennuju ruku,
Mladenca svoego v slezach blagoslovil,
No znamja černoe Svobodoj vosšumelo.
Kak Aristogiton, on mirtom meč obvil,
On v seču rinulsja — i padši soveršil
Velikoe, svjatoe delo.
