Gde ty, zvjozdochka?

Gde ty, zvjozdochka, akh, gde ty, jasnaja?
Il' zatmilasja tuchej [mrachnoju]1?
Gde ty, devica, gde ty, krasnaja?
Il' pokinula druga milogo?2

I ja s goresti, so ljutoj toski,
Pojdu vo pole, pole chistoe,
Ne uvizhu li jasnoj zvezdochki,
Ja ne vstrechu li krasnoj devicy?

Tucha chjornaja skryla zvjozdochku,
Zemlja khladnaja vzjala devicu.
