Language: Russian (Русский)
Net dlja menja bol'she zhizni, ostalos' lish' zlo. Solnce, chej svet sogreval menja, Solnce zashlo. Mesjac, kotoryj svetil mne, ushjol v temnotu, Zvezda, chto vela, otoshla, umerla na letu. Vsjo poterjal ja, otnyne net schastija dnej, Net bol'she radosti serdca, ulybki mojej. Tot, kem byl zhiv ves' narod nash, ushjol navsegda. Chtó s nami budet! Net zhizni. Lish' smotrit beda. Ja — skhoronennyj otnyne v glubokoj nochi, Gorech' — mne More, v nej vse potonuli luchi. Ja pogruzhajus' v puchinu, bessil'no veslo, Solnce, chto grelo i pelo mne, Solnce zashlo.
