Our translations: FRE
Vishnyovy'j sadik vozle xaty'; Zhuki nad vishnyami gudyat; Plug s nivy' paxari tashhat; I, raspevayuchi, devchaty' Domoj na vecheryu speshat. Sem`ya ix zhdyot, i vsyogo-tovo; Zvezda vechernyaya vstayot, I dochka uzhin podayot. A mat` skazala by' ej slovo, Da solovejko ne dayot. Mat` ulozhila vozle xaty' Malyutok-detochek svoix; Sama zasnula vozle nix... Zatixlo vse... odin devchaty', Da solovejko ne zatix.
