Moj Lizochek tak uzh mal, tak uzh mal,
chto iz kry'l`yov komarishki
sdelal dve sebe manishki,
i - v kraxmal, i - v kraxmal!

Moj Lizochek tak uzh mal, tak uzh mal,
chto iz greczkogo orexa
sdelal stul, chtob slushat` e`xo,
i krichal, i krichal!

Moj Lizochek tak uzh mal, tak uzh mal,
chto iz skorlupy' yaichnoj
fae`ton sebe otlichny'j
zakazal, zakazal!

Moj Lizochek tak uzh mal, tak uzh mal,
chto iz skorlupy' rachonka
sshil chety're bashmachonka
i - na bal, i - na bal!

Moj Lizochek tak uzh mal, tak uzh mal,
chto iz listika sireni
sdelal zontik on dlya teni
i gulyal, i gulyal!

Moj Lizochek tak uzh mal, tak uzh mal,
chto naduvshi oduvanchik,
zakazal sebe divanchik,
tut i spal, tut i spal!

Moj Lizochek tak uzh mal, tak uzh mal,
chto natkat` sebe xolstiny'
pauku iz pautiny'
zakazal, zakazal!

Note (provided by Laura Prichard): Tchaikovsky wrote this in 1881 and it was published as a single issue by Jurgenson. In the late 1880s, he added it as "no. 16" to the already-published fifteen op. 54 songs (published in 1883).
