Gasnut dal'nej Al'puchary
Zolotistye kraja,
Na prizyvnyj zvon gitary
Vyjdi, milaja moja!

Vsech, kto skažet, čto drugaja
Zdes' ravnjaetsja s toboj,
Vsech, ljuboviju sgoraja,
Vsech, vsech, vsech zovu na smertnyj boj!

     Ot lunnogo sveta
     Zardel nebosklon,
     O, vyjdi, Niseta, o vyjdi, Niseta,
     Skorej na balkon!

Ot Sevil'i do Grenady,
V tichom sumrake nočej,
Razdajutsja serenady,
Razdaëtsja stuch mečej.

Mnogo krovi, mnogo pesnej
Dlja prelestnych l'jutsja dam,
JA že toj, kto vsech prelestnej, 
Vsë, vsë, pesn' i krov' moju otdam!

     Ot lunnogo sveta
     Zardel nebosklon,
     O, vyjdi, Niseta, o vyjdi, Niseta,
     Skorej na balkon!

Note: see also Вновь я здесь, перед балконом, which uses similar thematic material from Tirso de Molino's story of Don Juan.
