Vechernij zvon
Language: Russian (Русский) after the English
Vechernij zvon, vechernij zvon! Kak mnogo dum navodit on O yuny'x dnyax v krayu rodnom, Gde ya lyubil, gde otchij dom, I kak ya, s nim navek prostyas`, Tam [slushal]1 zvon v poslednij raz! Uzhe ne zret` mne svetly'x dnej Vesny' obmanchivoj moej! I skol`ko net teper` v zhivy'x Togda vesely'x, molody'x! I krepok ix mogil`ny'j son; Ne sly'shen im vechernij zvon. Lezhat` i mne v zemle sy'roj! Napev [uny'vny'j]2 nado mnoj V doline veter razneset; Drugoj pevecz po nej projdet, I uzh ne ya, a budet on V razdum`e pet` vechernij zvon!
