`El'zasskaja Ballada
Language: Russian (Русский)
Zhil v strane korol'. On star i beden byl. Iz vsekh sokrovishch sokhranil lish' doch' svoju Gertrudu. Zhil s nim rycar' znatnyj, jego Garol'dom zvali. Iz vsekh krasavic on ljubil lish' junuju Gertrudu. No zloj rok sulil ikh ljubvi konec inoj. Saracin ubil jego v boju za krest svjatoj... I s toj pory ona vsjo zhdet, chto on pridet k Gertrude... Dnjom il' noch'ju temnoju ona vsjo podzhidala... I v stradan'jakh bednaja rassudok poterjala... I s toj pory ona vsjo zhdet, chto on pridet k Gertrude... Zhil v strane korol'. On star i beden byl. Iz vsekh sokrovishch sokhranil lish' doch' svoju Gertrudu. Tak pelas' pesn' v mojej strane...
