Podvig jest' i v srazhen'ji

Podvig jest' i v srazhen'ji,
Podvig jest' i v bor'be,
Vysshij podvig v terpen'ji
Ljubvi i mol'be.
Jesli serdce zanylo
Pered zloboj ljudskoj,
Il' nasil'je skhvatilo 
Tebja cep'ju stal'juj,
Jesli skorbi zemnyje
Zhalom v dushu vpilis',
S veroj bodroj i smeloj
Ty za podvig beris':
Jest' u podviga kryl'ja,
I vzletish' ty na nikh,
Bez truda, bez usil'ja,
Vyshe mrakov zemnykh;
Vyshe kryshi temnicy,
Vyshe zloby slepoj,
Vyshe voplej i krikov
Gordoj cherni ljudskoj!
