…Vdal' idut derzhavnym shagom…
Language: Russian (Русский)
…Vdal' idut derzhavnym shagom… — Kto jeshche tam? Vykhodi! `Eto — veter s krasnym flagom Razygralsja vperedi… Vperedi — sugrob kholodnyj, — Kto v sugrobe — vykhodi!.. Tol'ko nishchij pes golodnyj Kovyljajet pozadi… — Otvjazhis' ty, sheludivyj, Ja shtykom poshchekochu! Staryj mir, kak pes parshivyj, Provalis' — pokolochu! …Skalit zuby — volk golodnyj — Khvost podzhal — ne otstajet — Pes kholodnyj — pes bezrodnyj… — `Ej, otkliknis', kto idet? — Kto tam mashet krasnym flagom? — Prigljadis'-ka, `eka t'ma! — Kto tam khodit beglym shagom, Khoronjas' za vse doma? — Vse ravno, tebja dobudu, Luchshe sdajsja mne zhiv'em! — `Ej, tovarishch, budet khudo, Vykhodi, streljat' nachnem! Trakh-takh-takh! — I tol'ko `ekho Otklikajetsja v domakh… Tol'ko v'juga dolgim smekhom Zalivajetsja v snegakh… Trakh-takh-takh! Trakh-takh-takh… …Tak idut derzhavnym shagom, Pozadi — golodnyj pes, Vperedi — s krovavym flagom, I za v'jugoj, nevidim, I ot puli nevredim, Nezhnoj postup'ju nadv'juzhnoj, Snezhnoj rossyp'ju zhemchuzhnoj, V belom venchike iz roz — Vperedi — Isus Khristos.
