Gde ty, prelestnyj kraj
Language: Russian (Русский)
Gde ty, prelestnyj kraj, rodimaja strana? Tam bystro protekli mladencheskije gody! Kak nebo chistoje, tam zhizn' byla jasna, I ja togda ne znal ni bur', ni nepogody. Kuda sokrylis' vy, prelestnye mechty, Minuty luchshije serdechnoj prostoty! Jeshchjo ja ne zabyl posledneje mgnoven'e, Kogda v toske nemoj s slezami na ochakh Mne dal otec rodnoj svoje blagosloven'e I schast'ja mne zhelal v nevedomykh krajakh.
