Ruchej
Language: Russian (Русский)
Serebristyj ruchej Mezh lugov i polej, Ja bespechno bezhal I na solnce igral. Byl svoboden moj put' Pod sijanijem dnja, No sdavili mne grud' I pojmali menja. V zolotuju volnu Ne gljaditsja trava: Za plotinoj, v plenu Ja verchu zhernova. I drozhit celyj dom Ot raboty mojej... Raz metat' by krugom Ukhishren'ja ljudej! Slovno lev ja rychu, Zolny v sljozy droblju! Ja svobody khochu, Ja svobodu ljublju!
