K Molli

Ne trebuj pesen ot pevcza,
Kogda zhitejskie volnen`ya
Zamknuli veshhie usta
Dlya radosti i vdoxnoven`ya.

I esli chuvstv mogil`ny'j son
Narushish` vlastiyu velikoj,
Ne pen`e, net! Razdastsya ston
Il` zhenskij plach, il` xoxot dikij.

No esli, gordost` zataya,
Pevcza zhivy'm uchast`em vstretish`
I xot` pritvorno, xot` shutya,
Nadezhdoj zhizn` emu osvetish`,

Yarche molnii, zharche plameni,
Burny'm potokom pol`yutsya slova;
Pesni zvonkie, pesni gromkie
Groma sil`nej oglasyat nebesa.
