by Aleksandr Fomich Vel'tman (1800 - 1870)

Chto otumanilas`, zoren`ka yasnaya
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Chto otumanilas`, zoren`ka yasnaya,
Pala na zemlyu rosoj?
Chto ty' zadumalas`, devushka krasnaya,
Ochi blesnuli slezoj?

Zhal` mne pokinut` tebya, chernookuyu!
[Peven`]1 udaril kry'lom,
[Kriknul]2!.. Uzh polnoch`!.. Daj charu glubokuyu,
Vspen` poskoree vinom!

Vremya!.. [Vedi mne konya ty' lyubimova]3,
[Krepche derzhi]4 pod uzdcy'!
Edut s tovarami v put` iz Kasimova
Muromskim lesom kupcy'!

Est` dlya tebya u [nix]5 koftochka shitaya,
Shubka na lis`em mexu!
Budesh` xodit` ty' vsya zlatom oblitaya,
Spat` na lebyazh`em puxu!

Mnogo za dushu svoyu odinokuyu,
Mnogo [naryadov]6 kuplyu!
YA l` vinovat, chto tebya, chernookuyu,
Bol`she, chem dushu, lyublyu!
