Vesna prishla
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Vnov` prishla vesna v Balkany',
Sneg v dolinax taet,
Zeleneyut v pole travy',
Rozy' rasczvetayut.

Gej! Gej! To vesnu kraj rodnoj vstrechaet.
Gej! Gej! To vesnu kraj rodnoj vstrechaet.

No, kak prezhde, mat` s toskoyu,
So slezoj tumannoj
Vse glyadit i dnem i noch`yu
Na svoi Balkany'…

Gej! Gej! Mat` grustit, smotrit na Balkany'…
Gej! Gej! Mat` grustit, smotrit na Balkany'!

Govorit ona im: «Gory',
Zeleny' vy' stali,
U menya zh v glazax temneet
Ot toski – pechali.

Gej! Gej! Vse temno ot toski – pechali.
Gej! Gej! Vse temno ot toski – pechali!

Tyazhelo rodny'm Balkanam
V gore i nevole,
No svobodu my' dobudem
Tam, na ratnom pole!

Gej! Gej! Serdcem ya tam, na ratnom pole.
Gej! Gej! Serdcem ya tam, na ratnom pole!»

Sy'nu mat` tak govorila,
V bitvu sobirala:
«Bejsya, bejsya za svobodu
Dlya rodnogo kraya!

Gej! Gej! Vse otdaj dlya rodnogo kraya!
Gej! Gej! Vse otdaj dlya rodnogo kraya!
Gej! Vse otdaj, vse otdaj dlya rodnogo kraya!
Gej! Vse otdaj dlya rodnogo kraya!»

I prishla vesna v Balkany',
Sneg v dolinax taet,
Zeleneyut v pole travy',
Rozy' rasczvetayut.

Gej! Gej! To vesnu kraj rodnoj vstrechaet.
Gej! Gej! To vesnu kraj rodnoj vstrechaet.
