V'jotsja lastochka sizokrylaja
Language: Russian (Русский) 
V'jotsja lastochka sizokrylaja
Pod oknom moim, odineshen'ka,
Nad oknom moim, nad kosjashchatym.
Jest' u lastochki teplo gnezdyshko,
Zhdet kasatochku belogruduju
V teplom gnezdyshke jejo parochka.

Slezy gor'kije utirajuchi,
Ja smotrju jej vsled, vspominajuchi:
U menja byla tozhe lastochka,
Belogrudaja dusha-ptashechka.
Da svila sud'ba jej uzh gnezdyshko
Vo syroj zemle vekovechnoje.
