by Marina Ivanovna Tsvetaeva (1892 - 1941)

Czy'ganskaya svad`ba
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Iz-pod kopy't
Gryaz` letit.
Pered liczom
Shal` — kak shhit.
Bez molody'x
Gulyajte, svaty'!
E`j, vy'nosi,
Kon` kosmaty'j!

Né dali voli nam
Otecz i mat`,
Czeloe pole nam —
Brachnaya krovat`!
P`yan bez vina i bez xleba sy't, —
E`to cy'ganskaya svad`ba mchit!

Polon stakan,
Pust stakan.
Gomon gitarny'j, luna i gryaz`.
Vpravo i vlevo kachnulsya stan.
Knyazem — cy'gan!
Czy'ganom — knyaz`!
E`j, gospodin, beregis`, — zhzhyot!
E`to cy'ganskaya svad`ba p`yot!

Tam, na voroxe
Shalej i shub,
Zvon i shorox
Stali i gub.
Zvyaknuli shpory',
V otvet — monista.
Svistnul pod ch`ej-to rukoyu
Shyolk.
Kto-to zavy'l kak volk,
Kto-to kak by'k xrapit.
— E`to cy'ganskaya svad`ba spit.
