Pesnya cy'ganki
Language: Russian (Русский)
Den` proshyol, zarya pogasla, zatyanulo py'l`yu dal`; u kostra sidit cy'ganka, zavernulas` v temnu shal`. Stepi, zori da cy'ganki belu grud` ne zabudu, pomnit` budu stepi, zori da kibitok dal`nij put`. Mesyacz vstal nad kovy'lyami, rzhyot daleko gde-to kon`. U kostra sidit cy'ganka, smotrit sumrachno v ogon`. Zhizn` proshla, kak den` proxodit... Dremlyut v tabore voza. U kostra sidit cy'ganka, shal` spustila na glaza. Stepi, zori da cy'ganki belu grud` ne zabudu, pomnit` budu, stepi, zori da kibitok dal`nij put`.
