Gory i tuči, sumračnyj večer, Veter bušuet, jarostnyj veter, K nam on nesetsja iz vražeskich stran, Mečetsja on po poljam i lesam; Groznye volny šumjat na morjach; Sudna kačajutsja na jakorjach! Gej! Rodnoj Ararat, ty voznessja v noči! Po veršinam tvoim ne stupala noga, Groznoj molniej ty zakaljaeš' meči, I mečom poražaeš' vraga. Za oružie berites'! Preispolnis' volej, vitjaz'! Preispolnis' zloboj, mščen'em, Nenavist'ju i prezren'em! V nastuplen'e! V nastuplen'e! Mčites' v jarom isstuplen'i! Mčites' lesom i poljami, Put' ukazyvaet znamja, Put' geroev k večnoj slave! Gej! Rodnoj Ararat, ty voznessja v noči! Po veršinam tvoim ne stupala noga, Groznoj molniej ty zakaljaeš' meči, I mečom poražaeš' vraga!
