Otvori mne, straž zaoblačnyj
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Otvori mne, straž zaoblačnyj, 
Golubye dveri dnja. 
Belyj angel ėtoj polnoč'ju 
Moego uvel konja. 

Bogu lišnego ne nadobno, 
Kon' moj – mošč' moja i krep'. 
Slyšu ja, kak ržet on žalobno, 
Zakusiv zlatuju cep'. 

Vižu, kak on b'etsja, mečetsja, 
Terebja tugoj arkan, 
I letit s nego, kak s mesjaca, 
Šerst' bulanaja v tuman.
