Na Kazbek
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Na Kazbek sletelis` tuchi,
Slovno gorny'e orly'...
Im navstrechu, na skaly'
Uzdenej otryad letuchij
Vy'she, vy'she, kruche, kruche
Skachet, russkimi razbit:
Sled ix krov`yu kipit.

Na xvostax polki pogoni;
Zanesen i shty'k, i mech;
Smert`yu seyotsya kartech`...
Net spasen`ya v sile, v brone...
``Begu, begu, koni, koni!``
Pali vy', - a daleka
Krepost` gornogo leska!``

Serdce nashix - russkix meta...
Na kolena pal mulla -
I molitva, kak strela,
Do proroka Magometa,
V more sveta, v nebo sveta,
Poletela, poneslas`:
``Il`-Alla, ne vy'daj nas!``

Net spasen`ya niotkuda!
Vdrug, po maniyu nebes,
Zashumel dalekij les:
Veyot, pleshhet, katit grudoj,
Nizhe, blizhe, chudo, chudo!..
Musul`mane spaseny'
Sred` lesistoj krutizny'!
