Irtysh
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Pevec mladoj, sud'boj gonimyj,
Pri brege bystrykh vod sidel,
I, grust'ju skorbnoju tomimyj,
Razluku s rodinoj on pel:

Pripev:
 Shumi, Irtysh, struites', vody,
 Nesite grust' moju s soboj, 
 A ja, lishennyj zdes' svobody,
 Dyshu dlja rodiny dragoj.

Dlja rodiny, dlja serdcu miloj, -
Ja v nikh vse schastije imel,
V krugu rodnykh, vsegda ljubimyj,
Gde radosti odni ja pel.

Teper' pojot odnu razluku
Sud'boj rastorgnutykh serdec
I grust' svoju vverjajet zvuku
Uzh ne na rodine pevec…

Umolk – i vezhdy okropilis',
Kak bleklyj list zhivoj rosoj,
I strui vod sojedinilis',
Kak s perlom, - s chistoju slezoj.
