by Kondraty Fyodorovich Ryleyev (1795 - 1826)

Ne vchera li v xorovode
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ne vchera li v xorovode
Ty' igral, druzhok, so mnoj?
Ne vchera li pri narode
Nazy'val menya dushoj?

Ne vchera li vosxishhalsya
Rech`yu devushki, liczom?
Ne vchera li pomenyalsya
Ty' so mnoj svoim kol`czom?

Ne vchera l` v lyubvi bezmernoj
Ty', zhestokij, uveryal?
Ne vchera l` mne, legkovernoj,
Serdce, dushu obeshhal?

A segodnya?.. O, kovarstvo!
Ty' menya uzhe zaby'l!
I druguyu za bogatstvo,
Drug neverny'j, polyubil!

YA ne tak, druzhok, bogata,
Kak prelestnicza tvoya!
Net ni zhemchugov, ni zlata,
No uzhel` bez serdcza ya?

Polyubiv tebya serdechno,
Budu do smerti lyubit`:
Kto polyubit, tot, konechno,
Uzh ne v silax razlyubit`.

Veselis`!.. a ya stradayu!
Ax! takov li klyatv zalog?
Veselis`, druzhok, ya znayu:
Za menya otplatit bog!
