Chorugv' svjaščennuju podjav svoej desnoj, Idu. I tronulas' za mnoj tolpa živaja, I potjanulis' vse po proseke lesnoj, I ja blažen i gord, svjatynju vospevaja. Poju i pomyslam nevedom detskij strach: Puskaj na pen'e mne otvetjat voem zveri, S svjatynej nad čelom, i pesn'ju na ustach, S trudom, no ja dojdu do voždelennoj dveri.
