from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Slava!
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Slava Bogu na nebe, slava!
Gosudaoyu nashemu
na sej zemle, slava!
Chtoby' nashemu Gosudaryu
ne starit`sya, slava!
Ego czvetnomu plat`yu
ne iznashivat`sya. slava!
Ego dobry'm konyam
ne iz``ezhivat`sya, slava!
Ego verny'm slugam
ne izmenivat`sya, slava!
Chtoby' pravda by'la na zemle, slava!
Krashe solncza svetla, slava!
Chtob czaryova zolota kazna
Vek by'la polny'm polna, slava!
Chtoby' bol`shim-to rekam
Slava by'la do morya, slava!
Maly'm to rechkam do mel`nicy'!
A e`tu pesnyu my' xlebu poyom,
xlebu chest` vozdayom!
Stary'm lyudyam na uteshenie,
dobry'm lyudyam na usly'shan`e!
Slava!
