from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Narodnaya pesnya
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Devki po lugu gulyali,
Aly' czvetiki sry'vali,
Sory'vali, sobirali
I venochki sovivali,

Na golovki nadevali,
Domoj idti opozdali,
Opozdali, priustali,
Pod kustochkom otdy'xali.
Zly' sobaki nabezhali,
Krasny'x devok ispugali.

Na tu poru, na chasochek
Sam oxotnik naezzhaet,
So dobra konya slezaet,
Lyubov` devke otkry'vaet,
Zly'x sobak on otgonyaet.
