Language: Russian (Русский)
Net dlya menya bol`she zhizni, ostalos` lish` zlo. Solnce, chej svet sogreval menya, Solnce zashlo. Mesyacz, kotory'j svetil mne, ushyol v temnotu, Zvezda, chto vela, otoshla, umerla na letu. Vsyo poteryal ya, otny'ne net schastiya dnej, Net bol`she radosti serdcza, uly'bki moej. Tot, kem by'l zhiv ves` narod nash, ushyol navsegda. Chtó s nami budet! Net zhizni. Lish` smotrit beda. YA — sxoronenny'j otny'ne v glubokoj nochi, Gorech` — mne More, v nej vse potonuli luchi. YA pogruzhayus` v puchinu, bessil`no veslo, Solnce, chto grelo i pelo mne, Solnce zashlo.
