Terem
Language: Russian (Русский)
Tam, gde terem tot stoit, Ja ljublju vsegda khodit' Noch'ju tikhoj, noch'ju jasnoj, V blagovonnyj maj prekrasnyj! Chem zhe terem `etot mil? Chem menja on tak plenil? On ne pyshnyj, on ne novyj, On brevenchatyj — dubovyj! Akh, v tom tereme prostom Jest' s raskrashennym oknom Razubrannaja svetlica! V nej zhivet dusha-devica. Kak-to vstretilsja ja s nej — Ne svozhu s tekh por ochej; Krasna zh devica ne znajet, Po kom grud' moja vzdykhajet. Razryvajsja, grud' moja! Budu suzhenym ne ja — Tot bogatyj, ja bez khaty — Celyj mir moi palaty! Veshchun-serdce govorit: «Zhit' tebe, detinke, zhit' Ne s zhenoju molodoju — S chuzhoj-dal'nej storonoju…»
