by Abolqāsem Lahūtī (1887 - 1957)
Translation by Cecilia Bentsianovna Bakaleishchik (1911 - 1998), as Cecilia Banu

Dočeri Irana
Language: Russian (Русский)  after the Persian (Farsi) 
Ne v Iran letiš' li, veterok?
Ty šepni tam devuške Irana:
Za gorami, svetel i širok,
Rascvetaet kraj Uzbekistana.

Videl ja, s devič'ich lic mešok
Pal, kak černaja stena zendana.
Vsech v tot den' vesel'ja vichr' uvlëk,
Liš' moja bol'nej zanyla rana.
Vspomnil ja, čto est' inoj Vostok
Čto sestra moja v plenu korana.
Sžalos' gorlo, chlynul slëz potok,
Stydno, gor'ko mne za doč' Irana!

Veter, veter, daj ty mne zarok
O grjaduščem pet' ej neustanno
Za gorami, svetel i širok,
Rascvetaet kraj Uzbekistana.
