Daj tol'ko solncu za goru zajti,
k tebe ja skoro vyjdu!
Tjomnoj noch'ju ty podojdjosh' ko mne,
podobna utrennej zare,
krasiva, kak jevetok, jedva rascvetshij,
i ruku nezhnuju, gorjachuju
ot strasti i ljubvi k tebe,
ja ruku polozhu na grud' tvoju.
Drug k drugu my prizhmjomsja;
ljozha, celovat'sja budem,
ruki podlozhiv pod golovy vzamen podushek;
bjodra sblizim.
O, kak ljublju ja,
kak ljublju tebja ja strastno, nezhno,
moja radost'.

Daj tol'ko solncu za goru zajti,
k tebe ja vyjdu.
