Our translations: CHI

Klyon ty' moj opavshij, klyon zaledenely'j,
Chto stoish`, nagnuvshis`, pod metel`yu beloj? 

Ili chto uvidel? Ili chto usly'shal?
Slovno za derevnyu pogulyat` ty' vy'shel.

I, kak p`yany'j storozh, vy'jdya na dorogu,
Utonul v sugrobe, primorozil nogu. 

Ax, i sam ya ny'nche chto-to stal nestojkij,
Ne dojdu do doma s druzheskoj popojki. 

Tam von vstretil verbu, tam sosnu primetil,
Raspeval im pesni pod metel` o lete. 

Sam sebe kazalsya ya takim zhe klyonom,
Tol`ko ne opavshim, a vovsyu zelyony'm. 

I, utrativ skromnost`, odurevshi v dosku,
Kak zhenu chuzhuyu, obnimal beryozku.
