Pesnja cyganki
Language: Russian (Русский)
Den' proshjol, zarja pogasla, zatjanulo pyl'ju dal'; u kostra sidit cyganka, zavernulas' v temnu shal'. Stepi, zori da cyganki belu grud' ne zabudu, pomnit' budu stepi, zori da kibitok dal'nij put'. Mesjac vstal nad kovyljami, rzhjot daleko gde-to kon'. U kostra sidit cyganka, smotrit sumrachno v ogon'. Zhizn' proshla, kak den' prokhodit... Dremljut v tabore voza. U kostra sidit cyganka, shal' spustila na glaza. Stepi, zori da cyganki belu grud' ne zabudu, pomnit' budu, stepi, zori da kibitok dal'nij put'.
