Pesnja Bajana
Language: Russian (Русский)
O noch', o noch', leti streloj! Nesnosen otdykh Svjatoslavu, On zhazhdet bitvy rokovoj, O noch', o noch', leti streloj! Cymijskij krepok li tvoj shchit? Ne tonki l' kovanye laty? Nash knjaz' ubijstvenno razit. Cymijskij krepok li tvoj shchit? Druzhine borzykh daj konej, Ne to mechi jee nagonjat, I ne uskachet ot mechej. Druzhine borzykh daj konej, Ne to mechi jee nagonjat. Ty rat' obshirnuju privel. Nemnogo nas, no my - slavjane; Udar nash metok i tjazhel. Ty rat' obshirnuju privel, Nemnogo nas, no my - slavjane. O noch', o noch', leti streloj, Polja, otkrojtes' dlja pobedy, Prosnisja, uzhas bojevoj! O noch', o noch', leti streloj! Polja, otkrojtes' dlja pobedy!
