Sad

Language: Russian

Za `etot ad,
Za `etot bred,
Poshli mne sad
Na starost' let.

Na starost' let,
Na starost' bed:
Rabochikh — let,
Gorbatykh — let...

Na starost' let
Sobach'ikh — klad:
Gorjachikh let —
Prokhladnyj sad...

Dlja begleca
Mne sad poshli:
Bez ni-lica,
Bez ni-dushi!

Sad: ni shazhka!
Sad: ni glazka!
Sad: ni smeshka!
Sad: ni svistka!

Bez ni-ushka
Mne sad poshli:
Bez ni-dushka!
Bez ni-dushi!

Skazhi: dovol'no mýki — ná
Sad — odinokij, kak sama.
(No okolo i Sam ne stan'!)
— Sad, odinokij, kak ty Sam.

Takoj mne sad na starost' let...
— Tot sad? A mozhet byt' — tot svet? —
Na starost' let moikh poshli —
Na otpushchenie dushi.
