Vperedi bol'shak, podvoda. Staryj pes u kolesa, - Vperedi opjat' svoboda, Step', prostor i nebesa. No pritvorshchica otstala, Lovko semechki gryzet, Govorit, chto v serdce zhalo, Jad gorjuchij uneset. Govorit... A chto zh igrajet Jarkij ugol'nyj zrachok? Solncem, zolotom sijajet, No besstrasten i daljok. Skol'ko jubok! Nogu strojno Oblegajet bashmachok. Stan struitsja bespokojno, I zhemchuzhna smuglost' shchjok... Vperedi bol'shak, podvoda, Staryj pes u kolesa, Schast'e, molodost', svoboda, Solnce, stepi, nebesa.
