Полюбила я, На печаль свою, Сиротинушку Бесталанного. Уж такая [мне Доля]1 выпала! Разлучили нас Люди сильные; Увезли его, Сдали в рекруты... И солдаткой я, Одинокой я, Знать, в чужой избе И состареюсь... Уж такая [мне Доля]1 выпала.

Et une femme de soldat, Une âme seule, Peut-être, dans la maison d'un étranger Je vieillirai. Tel est le sort Qui m'échoit !
