by Sergei Aleksandrovich Esenin (1895 - 1925)

Ty' zapoj mne tu pesnyu
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ty' zapoj mne tu pesnyu, chto prezhde
Napevala nam staraya mat`,
Ne zhaleya o sgibshej nadezhde,
YA sumeyu tebe podpevat`.

YA ved` znayu, i mne znakomo,
Potomu i volnuj i trevozh`,
Budto ya iz rodimogo doma
Sly'shu v golose nezhnuyu drozh`.

Ty' mne poj, nu a ya s takoyu,
Vot s takoyu zhe pesnej, kak ty',
Lish` nemnogo glaza prikroyu,
Vizhu vnov` dorogie cherty'.

Ty' mne poj, ved` moya otrada —
Chto vovek ya lyubil ne odin
I kalitku osennego sada,
I opavshie list`ya s ryabin.

Ty' mne poj, nu a ya pripomnyu
I ne budu zaby'vchivo xmur:
Tak priyatno i tak legko mne
Videt` mat` i toskuyushhix kur.

YA navek za tumany' i rosy'
Polyubil u berezki stan,
I ee zolotisty'e kosy',
I xolshhovy'j ee sarafan.

Potomu tak i serdczu ne zhestko—
Mne za pesneyu i za vinom
Pokazalas` ty' toj berezkoj,
Chto stoit pod rodimy'm oknom.
