Molodaja ptashechka
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Molodaja ptashechka,
Ty kuda letish'?
Ty kuda iz kustika,
Rezvaja, speshish'?
Beregis', v poljakh tebja
Sterezhet strelok,
Il' k mal'chishkam, mozhet byt',
Popadesh' v silok.
Il' tebja vdrug khishchnaja
Ptica zakljuet,
Il' sredi pogodushki
Grom tebja ub'et.

Ja lechu na rodinu,
Tam gnezdo sov'ju,
Tam vesnu uvizhu ja
Prezhnjuju svoju.
V chistom, jasnom vozdukhe
Budu likovat',
O svojej nevoljushke
S pesnej vspominat'.
Ne bojus' opasnostej,
Groma, ni setej;
Grust' i odinochestvo
Izvedut skorej!

A kogda udarit vdrug
Chas poslednij moj,
Mysl'ju toj uteshusja,
Chto lechu domoj!
Za nadezhdu sladkuju
Smert'ju zaplachu,
A kto znajet, mozhet byt',
Jeshche dolechu!
Nu, leti zhe, ptashechka,
Leti, bog s toboj!
Akh, i mne kak khochetsja
Samomu domoj!
