Language: Russian (Русский)
Ja khochu vesel'ja, radostnogo pen'ja, Bujnogo razgula, smekha i ostrot — Ottogo, chto znal ja lish' odni muchen'ja, Ottogo, chto zhil ja pod jarmom zabot. Vozdukha, cvetov mne, solnechnoj pogody! Slishkom dolgo shjol ja grjaz'ju, pod dozhdjom. Ja khochu vesel'ja, ja khochu svobody — Ottogo, chto byl ja skovannym rabom! Ja khochu rubit'sja, mstit' s bezumnoj strast'ju — Ottogo, chto dolgo byl pokoren zlym. I khochu ljubvi ja, i khochu ja schast'ja — Ottogo, chto ne byl schastliv i ljubim!
