Пришел месяц‑бокогрей
Language: Russian (Русский) 
«Пришел месяц-бокогрей,
Землю-матушку не грел —
Бок корове обогрел,
И корове, и коню,
И седому старику
Морозу Морозычу…
Ты, Морозко, не серчай,
Из деревни убегай —
Что за тридевять земель,
[Да]1 за тридесять морей!
Там твоё хозяйство
Ждёт тебя — заброшено,
Белым снегом запорошено,
За ледяными печатями,
За семью железными замками
Да за семью засовами!» —
