Segodnja prazdnik
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Segodnja prazdnik:
vse kusty v cvetu,
pospela smorodina,
i lotos plavajet v prudu kak ulej!
Khochesh',
pobezhim vperegonku
po dorozhke, obsazhennoj zheltymi rozami,
k ozeru, gde plavajut zolotye rybki?
Khochesh',
pojdem v besedku,
nam dadut sladkikh napitkov,
pirozhkov i orekhov,
mal'chik budet makhat' opakhalom,
a my budem smotret'
na dalekije ogorody s kukuruzoj?
Khochesh',
ja spoju grecheskuju pesnju pod arfu,
tol'ko ugovor:
"Ne zasypat'
i po okonchanii pokhvalit' pevca i muzykanta"?

Khochesh',
ja stancuju "osu"
odna na zelenoj luzhajke
dlja tebja odnogo?
Khochesh',
ja ugoshchu tebja smorodinoj, ne berja rukami,
a ty voz'mesh' gubami iz gub
krasnye jagody
i vmeste
pocelui?
Khochesh', khochesh',
budem schitat' zvezdy
i kto sputajetsja - budet nakazan?
Segodnja prazdnik,
ves' sad v cvetu,
pridi, moj nenagljadnyj,
i prazdnik sdelaj prazdnikom i dlja menja!
