Language: Russian (Русский)
Kak na Kame-reke glazu tjomno, kogda Na dubovykh kolenjakh stojat goroda. V pautinu rjadjas', boroda k borode, Zhguchij jel'nik bezhit, molodeja, v vode. Upiralas' voda v sto chetyre vesla — Vverkh i vniz na Kazan' i na Cherdyn' nesla. Tak ja plyl po reke s zanaveskoj v okne, S zanaveskoj v okne, s golovoju v ogne. A so mnoju zhena pjat' nochej ne spala, Pjat' nochej ne spala, trekh konvojnykh vezla.
