by Konstantin Konstantinovich Romanov, Grand Duke of Russia (1858 - 1915), as K. R.

Opjat' tvojo razdalos' penije
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Opjat' tvojo razdalos' penije,
Opjat' zvuchit nam pesn' tvoja!
K nej, ocharovan, v voskhishchen'e
Opjat' prislushivajus' ja.

‎Zabyta vnov' judol' zemnaja,
Ja budto slyshu tvoj prizyv,
I, slovno kryl'ja raspravljaja,
Vmig vstrepenuvshis' i ozhiv,

‎Dusha i prositsja, i rvetsja
V te nezemnye vysoty,
Otkuda golos tvoj nesetsja,
Tuda, otkuda manish' ty.

‎O, poj nam! Poj ne umolkaja
S toj vysoty, chtob i opjat'
Ja v `etoj divnoj pesne raja
Mog vdokhnoven'e pocherpat'.
