Berberskaja Pesnja
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ja ljubit' tebja do smerti kljalsja;
Smert' blizka uzhe, pulja v grudi.
Vrag lukavyj daleko, umchalsja,
Ja odin zdes' v pustyne ostalsja.
O, Zejnap, poskorej prikhodi.

Aloj krov'ju obryzgan svojeju,
Kholodeju ja ves' i bledneju;
No, Zejnap, ty ne ver', to ne krov',
To iz samogo serdca struitsja
Na gorjachuju zemlju ljubov'.

O, Zejnap, ne uderzhat rydan'ja
`Etu zhizn', zadykhajus' v krovi.
S kazhdoj kaplej vsjo men'she stradan'ja,
Kak poslednjaja vyjdet, lovi!
Ne ostanetsja v grudi dykhan'ja,
Ne ostanetsja v serdce ljubvi.
