from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Belorusskaja
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Po stepi rodnoj veter nositsja,
Do zemlja syroj kovyl' klonitsja.
Poljubil kozak krasnu divčinu,
Krasnu divčinu sineokuju.
V sadike višnevom večerkom vstrečalis',
Dolgo govorili, mnogo milovalis'.
-- JA toskuju, sochnu, -- govorit kozak ej,
-- Skoro li ty budeš' žinkoju moej! --
-- O, kozak moj milyj, -- govorit Oksana,
-- Chot' sejčas gotova byt' navek tvoej.
Da ne chočet mama, govorit, čto rano,
Čto kozak ty dobryj, da sem'ja bol'šaja.
Čto s utra do noči budu ja v rabote,
Potusknejut oči v tjažëloj zabote.--
-- Ne bojus' raboty, ne strašat zaboty,
Dlja tebja, moj milyj, dlja tebja, ljubimyj.
Esli ty so mnoju budeš', dorogoj moj,
Pust' guljaet veter po stepi rodnoj! --
