Vostochnaja melodija
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Pesni, polnye negi,
Pesni nezhnoj i sladkoj istomy
Napolnjajut vozdukh znojnyj,
Raduja i laskaja slukh.

I solovej vljublennyj
O roze divnoj vse pojet.
Akh! napevy Vostoka,
O skazochnyj mir,
Mir volshebnyj…
V put' ukhodjat karavany,
Medlenno shestvuja,
Ukhodjat v dal'nij put'.

A den' dogorajet,
Vse merknet vokrug,
Zvezdy zazhgli svoj svet.
Akh!
