Ja pokinul rodimyj dom
Language: Russian (Русский)
Ja pokinul rodimyj dom, Golubuju ostavil Rus'. V tri zvezdy bereznjak nad prudom Teplit materi staroj grust'. Zolotoj ljagushkoj luna Rasplastalas' na tikhoj vode. Slovno jablonnyj cvet, sedina U otca prolilas' v borode. Ja ne skoro, ne skoro vernus'. Dolgo pet' i zvenet' purge. Sterezhjot golubuju Rus' Staryj kljon na odnoj noge. I ja znaju, jest' radost' v njom Tem, kto list'ev celujet dozhd', Ottogo, chto tot staryj kljon Golovoj na menja pokhozh.
