Tak i rvjotsja dusha

Tak i rvjotsja dusha
Iz grudi molodoj!
Khochet voli ona,
Prosit zhizni drugoj!

To li delo -- vdvojom
Nad rekoju sidet',
Na zeljonuju step',
Na cvetochki gljadet'!

To li delo -- vdvojom
Zimnju noch' korotat',
Druga zharkoj rukoj
Ko grudi prizhimat';

[Poutru, na zare,]1
Obnimat'-provozhat', 
[Vecherkom]1 u vorot 
[Jevo vnov']1 podzhidat'!
