by Ivan Ivanovich Dmitriev (1760 - 1837)

Stonet sizyj goluboček
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Stonet sizyj goluboček,
Stonet on i den' i noč';
Milen'kij ego družoček
Otletel nadolgo proč'.

On už [bolše]1 ne vorkuet
I pšenički ne kljuet;
Vsë toskuet, vsë toskuet
I tichon'ko slezy l'et.

S odnoj vetki na druguju
Pereparchivaet on
I podružku [golubuju]2
Ždët k sebe so vsech storon.

Ždët eë... uvy! no tščetno, -
Znat', sudil emu tak rok!
Sochnet, sochnet neprimetno
Strastnyj, vernyj golubok.

On ko travke prilegaet,
Nosik v per'ja zavernul,
Už ne stonet, ne vzdychaet -
Golubok... navek ysnul!

Vdrug golubka priletala,
Priunyv, izdaleka.
Nad svoim ljubeznym sela,
Budit, budit golubka;

Plačet, stonet, serdcem moja,
Chodit milogo vokrug,
No... uvy! prelestna Chloja!
Ne prosnetsja milyj drug!
