Our translations: ENG FRE

Uzh ty, niva moja, nivushka, 
Ne skosit' tebja s makhu jedinogo,
Ne svjazat' tebja vsju vo jedinyj snop!
Uzh vy, dumy moi, dumushki, 
Ne strjakhnut' vas razom s plech doloj,
Odnoj rech'ju-to vas ne vyskazat'!
Po tebe-l', niva, veter razgulival, 
Gnul kolos'ja tvoi do-zemli,
Zrely zerna-vse razmetyval!
Shiroko vy, dumy, porassypalis', 
Kuda pala kakaja dumushka.
Tam vskhodila ljuta pechal'-trava, 
Vyrostalo gore gorjucheje.
