by Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 - 1837)
Delibaš
Language: Russian (Русский)
Perestrelka za cholmami; Smotrit lager' ich i naš; Na cholme pred kazakami V'etsja krasnyj delibaš. Delibaš! ne sujsja k lave, Požalej svoë žit'e; Vmig amin' lichoj zabave: Popadeš'sja na kop'e. Ėj, kazak! ne rvisja k boju: Delibaš na vsem skaku Srežet sableju krivoju S pleč udaluju bašku. Mčatsja, sšiblis' v obščem krike. Posmotrite! kakovy?.... Delibaš uže na pike, A kazak bez golovy.
