by Avetik Sahak Isahakyan (1875 - 1957)
Translation by Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Blok (1880 - 1921)

Был бы на Аразе у меня баштан —
Language: Russian (Русский)  after the Armenian (հայերեն) 
Был бы на Аразе у меня баштан —
Посадил бы иву, розы я, да мак,
Под тенистой ивой сплел бы я шалаш,
В шалаше бы вечно пламенел очаг!

Чтобы сидела рядом милая Шушан,
Чтобы нам друг друга у огня ласкать!
Кабы на Аразе завести баштан,
Для Шушик лилейной отдыха не знать!
