Our translations: CHI
Всё темней и кудрявей березовый лес зеленеет;
Колокольчики ландышей в чаще зеленой цветут;
На рассвете в долинах теплом и черемухой веет,
Соловьи до рассвета поют.
Скоро [Троицын день]1, скоро песни, венки и покосы...
Всё цветет и поёт, молодые надежды тая...
О, весенние зори и теплые майские росы!
О далекая юность мой!
