Cyganskaja svad'ba
Language: Russian (Русский)
Iz-pod kopyt Grjaz' letit. Pered licom Shal' — kak shchit. Bez molodykh Guljajte, svaty! `Ej, vynosi, Kon' kosmatyj! Né dali voli nam Otec i mat', Celoje pole nam — Brachnaja krovat'! P'jan bez vina i bez khleba syt, — `Eto cyganskaja svad'ba mchit! Polon stakan, Pust stakan. Gomon gitarnyj, luna i grjaz'. Vpravo i vlevo kachnulsja stan. Knjazem — cygan! Cyganom — knjaz'! `Ej, gospodin, beregis', — zhzhjot! `Eto cyganskaja svad'ba p'jot! Tam, na vorokhe Shalej i shub, Zvon i shorokh Stali i gub. Zvjaknuli shpory, V otvet — monista. Svistnul pod ch'ej-to rukoju Shjolk. Kto-to zavyl kak volk, Kto-to kak byk khrapit. — `Eto cyganskaja svad'ba spit.
