Vdol' po ulice shirokoj
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Vdol' po ulice shirokoj
Molodoj kuznec idjot;
Okh! idjot kuznec, idjot,
Pesni s posvistom pojot.

Tuk! tuk! v desjat' ruk
Priudarim, bratcy, vdrug!

Solov'em slova raskatit,
Drob'ju rech' on povedet;
Okh! rech' drob'ju povedet,
Slovno medu podneset.

Tuk! tuk! v desjat' ruk
Priudarim, bratcy, vdrug!

«Poljubi, dusha Parasha,
Ty likhogo molodca;
Okh! likhogo molodca,
Chto v Tobol'ske kuzneca».

Tuk! tuk! v desjat' ruk
Priudarim, bratcy, vdrug!

«Kak poljubish', razgolubish',
Slovno carstvom podarish',
Jeneralom uchinish'».

Tak! tuk! v desjat' ruk
Priudarim, bratcy, vdrug!
