Uletal solovushko dalyoko,

Uletal solovushko dalyoko,
vo chuzhuyu tyopluyu storonku.

Vy' proshhajte, lyudi dobry'e, na dolgo,
uletet` pora moya nastala!
Na dolgo proshhayus` s vami, lyudi!
Uletet` pora moya nastala!

I spasibo vam za vashu lyubov`, za lasku,
chto menya, solovushku, ne gnali,
pesni pet` mne, solov`yu, ne meshali,
maly'x detok moix ne zabizhali!

I ostalsya b ya teper` s vami,
da lixa beda vashi morozy';
ne lyublyu zimy' vashej beloj,
ne lyublyu ya bujnogo vetra!

A uzh kak vesna krasna vernyotsya,
s nej i ya vernus` k vam s novoj pesnej,
ya vernus` k vam s novoj pesnej!
