from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Likhora‑dushka
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Golova l' moja, ty golovushka,
Golova l' moja, ty bujanaja,
Oj lju-li, lju-li, ty bujanaja!

Vydal batjushka za nemilogo,
Za nemilogo, za revnivogo,
Oj lju-li, lju-li, za revnivogo!

On lezhit, lezhit vo posteljushke,
Jego b'jot-trjasjot likhoradushka,
Oj lju-li, lju-li, likhoradushka!

Akh ty, matushka, likhoradushka!
Potrjasi muzha khoroshenechko,
Oj lju-li, lju-li, khoroshenechko!

Ty trjasi bol'nej, chtoby byl dobrej,
Razminaj kosti, chtob pushchal v gosti,
Oj lju-li, lju-li, chtob pushchal v gosti!
