Gor'ko ptičke sidet' v kletke
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Gor'ko ptaške sidet' v kletke
I v nevole iznyvat';
Ej privol'nee na vetke
Pesnej solnyško vstrečat'.

To vzvivat'sja nad zemleju,
V čistom vozduche skol'zit',
Ili pesn'ju zolotoju
K sebe milogo manit'.

I doždavšis' dorogogo,
S nim ko gnezdyšku letet',
I pod krylyškom milogo
Nočku temnuju sidet'.

Tak, bespečnaja, na vole
Ona sčastlivo živet,
Liš' prosnetsja, snova v pole
I porchaet i poet.

Tak, bespečnaja, na vole
Ona sčastlivo živet,
Liš' prosnetsja, snova v pole
I porchaet i poet.
