Vdol` po ulice shirokoj
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Vdol` po ulice shirokoj
Molodoj kuznecz idyot;
Ox! idyot kuznecz, idyot,
Pesni s posvistom poyot.

Tuk! tuk! v desyat` ruk
Priudarim, bratcy', vdrug!

Solov`em slova raskatit,
Drob`yu rech` on povedet;
Ox! rech` drob`yu povedet,
Slovno medu podneset.

Tuk! tuk! v desyat` ruk
Priudarim, bratcy', vdrug!

«Polyubi, dusha Parasha,
Ty' lixogo molodcza;
Ox! lixogo molodcza,
Chto v Tobol`ske kuznecza».

Tuk! tuk! v desyat` ruk
Priudarim, bratcy', vdrug!

«Kak polyubish`, razgolubish`,
Slovno czarstvom podarish`,
Eneralom uchinish`».

Tak! tuk! v desyat` ruk
Priudarim, bratcy', vdrug!
