by Konstantin Konstantinovich Romanov, Grand Duke of Russia (1858 - 1915)

Nesyotsya blagovest... Kak grustno i uny'lo
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Nesyotsya blagovest... Kak grustno i uny'lo
Na storone chuzhoj zvuchat kolokola.
Opyat` pripomnilsya mne kraj otchizny' miloj,
I prezhnyaya toska na serdce nalegla.

YA vizhu sever moj s ego ravninoj snezhnoj,
I slovno sly'shitsya mne nashego sela
Znakomy'j blagovest: i laskovo, i nezhno
S dalekoj rodiny' gudyat kolokola.
