Zemlja moja zlataja!
Language: Russian (Русский)
Zemlja moja zlataja! Osennij svetlyj chram! Gusej kriklivych staja Nesëtsja k oblakam. To duš preobražennych Nesčislimaja rat', S ozër podnjavšis' sonnych, Letit v nebesnyj sad. A vperedi ich lebed'. V glazach, kak rošča, grust'. Ne ty li plačeš' v nebe, Otčalivšaja Rus'? Leti, leti, ne bejsja, Vsemu svoj čas i breg. Vetra stekajut v pesnju, A pesnja kanet v vek. Leti, zlataja Rus'!
