Terem
Language: Russian (Русский)
Tam, gde terem tot stoit, YA lyublyu vsegda xodit` Noch`yu tixoj, noch`yu yasnoj, V blagovonny'j maj prekrasny'j! Chem zhe terem e`tot mil? Chem menya on tak plenil? On ne py'shny'j, on ne novy'j, On brevenchaty'j — dubovy'j! Ax, v tom tereme prostom Est` s raskrashenny'm oknom Razubrannaya svetlicza! V nej zhivet dusha-devicza. Kak-to vstretilsya ya s nej — Ne svozhu s tex por ochej; Krasna zh devicza ne znaet, Po kom grud` moya vzdy'xaet. Razry'vajsya, grud` moya! Budu suzheny'm ne ya — Tot bogaty'j, ya bez xaty' — Czely'j mir moi palaty'! Veshhun-serdce govorit: «Zhit` tebe, detinke, zhit` Ne s zhenoyu molodoyu — S chuzhoj-dal`nej storonoyu…»
