Das milde Abendläuten Hallet über das Feld. Das will mir recht bedeuten, Daß doch auf dieser Welt Heimat und Heimatsglück Wohl keiner je gefunden: Der Erde kaum entwunden, Kehr'n wir zur Erde zurück. Wenn so die Glocken hallen, Geht es mir durch den Sinn, Daß wir noch Alle wallen Zur ew'gen Heimat hin. Glücklich, wer allezeit Der Erde sich entringet Und Heimatslieder singet Von jener Seligkeit.

Vechernij zvon ry'daet L`yotsya tixo v polyax; On slovno mne veshhaet, Chto zdes`, v zemny'x krayax Otchizny' svetly'j lik Uvidet` ne dano nam: Speshim my' v zemlyu snova, Zemlyu pokinuv na mig. Kogda v polyax ry'daet, Tixij vechernij zvon, Mne mnitsya, vsex szy'vaet K otchizne vechnoj on. Tot schastiv, kto zhivyot, Zemnoj chuzhdayas` zhizni, I pesn` svyatoj otchizny', Blazhenstva pesn` poyot.
