My' — plenyonny'e zveri
Language: Russian (Русский)
My' — plenyonny'e zveri, Golosim, kak umeem. Gluxo zaperty' dveri, My' otkry't` ix ne smeem. Esli serdce predaniyam verno, Uteshayas` laem, my' laem. Chto v zverince zlovonno i skverno, My' zaby'li davno, my' ne znaem. K povtoreniyam serdce privy'chno, — Odnozvuchno i skuchno kukuem. Vsyo v zverince bezlichno, oby'chno. My' o vole davno ne toskuem. My' — plenenny'e zveri, Golosim, kak umeem. Gluxo zaperty' dveri, My' otkry't` ix ne smeem.
