Solovushko

Uletal solovushko daljoko,
vo chuzhuju tjopluju storonku.
Uletal solovushko daljoko,
vo chuzhuju tjopluju storonku.
Vy proshchajte, ljudi dobryje, na dolgo,
uletet' pora moja nastala!
Na dolgo proshchajus' s vami, ljudi!
Uletet' pora moja nastala!
I spasibo vam za vashu ljubov', za lasku,
chto menja, solovushku, ne gnali,
pesni pet' mne, solov'ju, ne meshali,
malykh detok mojikh ne zabizhali!
I ostalsja b ja teper' s vami,
da likha beda vashi morozy;
ne ljublju zimy vashej beloj,
ne ljublju ja bujnogo vetra!
A uzh kak vesna krasna vernjotsja,
s nej i ja vernus' k vam s novoj pesnej,
ja vernus' k vam s novoj pesnej!

The little nightingale
Language:
English
The little nightingale flew far away,
Into a warm foreign little country,
The little nightingale flew far away,
Into a warm foreign little country.
Farewell, kind people, for a long while,
My time begins to fly away!
People, for a long time I will be parted from you!
My time begins to fly away!
And thank you for your love, for the affection,
That didn't drive me, a little nightingale, away,
That didn't hinder me, the nightingale, in singing songs,
That didn't run ahead of my small little children!
I would even now remain with you,
But for the misfortunate evil of your frosts;
I do not love your white winter,
I do not love the wild wind!
But even as the beautiful spring returns,
With her, I also return to you with a new song,
I will return to you with a new song!
