О Дельвиг, Дельвиг! Что награда И дел высоких и стихов? Таланту что и где отрада Среди злодеев и глупцов? В руке суровой Ювенала Злодеям грозный быч свистит И краску гонит с их ланит. И власть тиранов задрожала. О Дельвиг, Дельвиг, что гоненья? Бессмертие равно удел И смелых вдохновенных дел И сладостного песнопеня! Так не умрёт и наш союз, Свободный, радостный и гордый! И в счастье и в несчастье твёрдый Союз любимцев вечных муз!

Oh Delvig, Delvig! On és la recompensa per a les belles accions i per a la poesia? Quin lloc hi ha per al talent enmig de brètols i necis? A l'austera mà de Juvenal el temible flagell xiula sobre els brètols tot llevant-los-hi el color de les galtes. I el poder dels tirans trontollà. Oh Delvig, Delvig, què és la persecució? La immortalitat és la recompensa per a les accions nobles i valentes o per als dolços cants poètics. Així, el nostre vincle no morirà mai, valent, joiós i lliure! En la joia com en el dolor, fort és el vincle dels amants de la musa eterna.
