V rošče berëzovoj Lada roditsja — Junaja, sonnaja V ljul'ke ležit. Lik u nej — rozovyj, Kak podnebes'e, Oči — zelënye, Kak černoles'e. Len' probudit'sja… Gljanut' ej — styd… Smotrit i zastitsja Vsja zolotaja, Vsja potaënnaja V rusoj kose. K solnyšku lastjatsja Smuglye pal'cy. S šei červonnye Bleščut brjacal'cy. Plot' — molodaja, Guby — v rose. Vsë ulybaetsja, Spit da igraet — Divnoj ulyboju V čašče rastët. Zver' k nej laskaetsja, Cvet eë tešit, Ptica že s ryboju Moët i češet, Pčelka pitaet: Mëd svoj daët. Stanet krasavicej Ditjatko Lada, Tonkie peleny Skinet ona: Srazu ob"javitsja Devič'e telo V list'jach, čto zeleny, Krasno i belo… Vsë emu rado. Ėto — vesna.
