Smert` voina
Language: Russian (Русский) after the Armenian (հայերեն)
Ya gibnu za tebya, otchizna dorogaya, I l`yotsya krov` moya goryacheyu struyoj, Svyatoj tvoej zemli dolinu oroshaya… No pust` tvoi sy'ny' ne plachut nado mnoj! Na moj xolodny'j prax da ne prol`yutsya slyozy'! Ne sornaya trava pokroet krov` moyu, A rozy' vy'rastut… ukrasyat e`ti rozy' Chelo tvoix sy'nov, proslavlenny'x v boyu! O, daj obnyat` tebya, otchizna dorogaya! Pozvol` obnyat` tvoyu stradal`cheskuyu grud` I, vesti radostnoj vsem serdcem ozhidaya, V tvoix ob``yatiyax zaby't`sya i zasnut`… I pust` vosstanu ya, sud`bu blagoslovlyaya, Uzrev svobody' luch, soznayu vsej dushoj, Chto dlya tebya odnoj, strana moya rodnaya, I zhil ya, i stradal, i zhertvoval soboj!..
Confirmed with Армянская муза, М: Типо-литогр. Т-ва И. Н. Кушнерев и Ко, 1907.
