I mchitsya trojka udalaya
Language: Russian (Русский)
[I]1 mchitsya trojka udalaya V Kazan` dorogoj stolbovoj, I kolokol`chik - dar Valdaya - Gusit, kachayas` pod dugoj... Mladoj yamshhik bezhit s polnochi: Emu sgrustnulosya v tishi, I on zapel pro yasny' ochi, Pro ochi devicy'-dushi: ,,Ax, ochi, ochi goluby'e! Vy' issushili molodcza! Zachem, o lyudi, lyudi zly'e, Zachem razroznili serdcza? Teper` ya gor`kij sirotina!`` I vdrug maxnul po vsem po trem... No ya rasstalsya s mily'm snom, I chuzhezemnaya kartina Siyala py'shno predo mnoj. Nemeczkij gorod... vse krasivo, No ya v razdum`e molchalivo Vzdoxnul po storone rodnoj.
