Spi, moj angel, pochivaj, jasnykh glaz ne otkryvaj. Baju, bajushki-baju, baju, bajushki-baju. Ne spish', a vremja uletit, i grozno tuchi soberutsja, i strasti prosnutsja, i burja zhizni zakipit, i strasti bujnye prosnutsja, i burja zhizni zakipit. Spasi i sokhrani jego ot buri, vsemogushchy! Rassej zemnykh volnenyj tuchi, i tikhim schast'em oseni. Baju, bajushki-baju, baju, bajushki-baju. Spi, moj angel, pochivaj, jasnykh glaz ne otkryvaj. Baju, bajushki-baju, baju, bajushki-baju. Chu! Na poroge slyshen shum... Vragi prishli, stuchatsja v dveri... Stradan'ja i poteri, roj strashnykh grjoz i gorkikh dum, stradan'ja, zhertvy i poteri, roj strashnykh grjoz i gorkikh dum. Spasi i sokhrani jego ot buri, vsemogushchij! Rassej zemnykh volnenyj tuchi, i tikhim schast'em oseni. Baju, bajushki-baju, baju, bajushki-baju.
