from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Selezen`
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Selezen`, selezen`,
Siz golubchik selezen`,
Xoxlaty' selezen`!
Ty' vy'idi, selezen`, selezen`,
Ty' posmotri, selezen`,
Gde utushka tvoya,
Gde semero utej.

Selezen`, dogonyaj utku,
Molodoj, dogonyaj utku.
Podi utushka domoj.
Podi seraya domoj!
U te semero utej
Osmoj selezen`,
Budet utushka ny'ryat` po polyam,
Po noryam, po kustam, po izbam,
Po chuzhim seleznyam,
Po zaezzhim gostyam.
