Language: Russian (Русский)
Net dlja menja bol'še žizni, ostalos' liš' zlo. Solnce, čej svet sogreval menja, Solnce zašlo. Mesjac, kotoryj svetil mne, ušël v temnotu, Zvezda, čto vela, otošla, umerla na letu. Vsë poterjal ja, otnyne net sčastija dnej, Net bol'še radosti serdca, ulybki moej. Tot, kem byl živ ves' narod naš, ušël navsegda. Čtó s nami budet! Net žizni. Liš' smotrit beda. JA — schoronennyj otnyne v glubokoj noči, Goreč' — mne More, v nej vse potonuli luči. JA pogružajus' v pučinu, bessil'no veslo, Solnce, čto grelo i pelo mne, Solnce zašlo.
