Ja pomnju val'sa zvuk prelestnyj

Ja pomnju val'sa zvuk prelestnyj
Vesennej noch'ju v pozdnij chas,
Jego pel golos neizvestnyj,
I pesnja chudnaja lilas'.
Da, to byl val's, prelestnyj,
Tomnyj, da, to byl divnyj val's!

Teper' zima, i te zhe jeli,
Pokryty sumrakom stojat.
A pod oknom shumjat meteli,
I zvuki val'sa ne zvuchat...
Gde zh `etot val's, starinnyj,
Tomnyj, gde zh `etot divnyj val's?!
