Война
Language: Russian (Русский)
Зажглась, друзья мои, война, И развились знамена чести; Трубой заветною она Манит в поля кровавой мести! Простите, шумные пиры, Хвалы достойные напевы, И Вакха милые дары, Святая Русь и красны девы! Забуду я тебя, любовь, Сует и юности отравы, И полечу, свободный, вновь Ловить венок небренной славы!
