Tropami sbitymi stopami
Khodyat dalyami lyudi strannyye.
Ikh dusha kholodna, zamerzala do dna,
Trepetala, zhelala da ustala.
Materi doma starilis',
A ikh bednyye detushki likho mayalis'.
Nynche s nochi do zari khodyat krug po vsey zemli,
Pod rubashkami - muki tyazhkiye..
Ikh dusha kholodna zamerzala do dna,
Trepetala, zhelala da ustala.
Ne zhretsy, ne kuptsy
Otgulyalis' molodtsy.
Ne smeyutsya, ne plachut, dumy pryachut.
Dyshat pylyami, dnyami stylymi
Pokayaniya iskateli u sozdatelya
Pokayaniya iskateli u sozdatelya.
A vot kak naydut, tak slezoyu zal'yut zemli drevniye dedovy, otkol' sledyvali
Zemli drevniye dedovy, kuda i sledyvali.
Zemli drevniye dedovy, otkol' i sledyvali
