Pesnja devuški
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ja pojdu po polju belomu,
Poleču po polju smertnomu,
Poišču ja slavnych sokolov,
Ženichov moich - dobrych molocev.
Ktoležit mečami porublenyj,
Kto ležit streloju poranenyj,
Napaili oni krovju aloju
Zemlju česnuju, zemlju ruskuju.
Ne vožmu v mužja krasivogo -
Krasota zemnaja končaetsja,
A pojdu ja za chrabrogo -
Otzovitesja, jasnyj sokaly!
