Dajte kryl'ja mne pereletnye

Dajte kryl'ja mne pereletnye,
Dajte volju mne... volju sladkuju!
Polechu v stranu chuzhezemnuju
K drugu milomu ja ukradkoju!

Ne strashit menja put' tomitel'nyj,
Ja pomchus' k nemu, gde by ni byl on.
Chut'em serdca ja doberus' k nemu
I najdu ego, gde b ni skrylsja on!

V vodu kanu ja, v plamja broshus' ja!
Odoleju vsjo, chtob uzret' ego,
Otdokhnu pri nem ot kruchiny zloj,
Rascvetu dushoj ot ljubvi ego!..
