Radost'‑dushechka
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Radost'-dushechka, krasna devushka,
Chto zadumalas', prigorjunilas'?
Poljubi menja lebed' belaja,
Poljubi menja, prigolub' menja
Rech'ju nezhnoju, slovom laskovym,
Rech'ju nezhnoju, slovom laskovym.

Ot tvoikh kudrej rusykh, shelkovykh,
Ot tvoikh ochej chernykh, ognennykh,
Ot tvoikh rechej zvonkikh, sladostnykh
Chasto sljozy l'ju ja gorjuchije.
Ot tvoikh rechej zvonkikh, sladostnykh
Chasto sljozy l'ju ja gorjuchije.

Ne ljubit' tebja, pozabyt' tebja
Khot' na mig odin!.. Legche vyrezat',
Legche vyrezat' iz grudi mojej,
Iz grudi mojej serdce bednoje.
Bez tebja li mne solnce v letnij den',
Slovno osen'ju, svetit kholodom!

Bez tebja li mne belyj svet ne mil,
Bez tebja grustna moja molodost',
Poljubi zh menja, nenagljadnaja!
Kak poljubish' ty – proch', zmeja-toska,
Zakipit opjat' schast'em, radost'ju
Zhizn' unylaja, odinokaja!
