Песня Марьи [Pesnya Mar'n] [Transliteration]

Otchego ne brosilas', Mar'yushka, v reku ty,

Chto zhe ne zamolkla-to navsegda ty,

Kak zabrali milogo v rekruty, v rekruty,

Kak ushel tvoy suzhenyy vo soldaty?!

YA slezami gor'kimi gornitsu vymoyu

I na gody dolgiye dver' zakroyu,

Naklonyus' nad ozerom ivoyu, ivoyu -

Vysmotryu, kak v zerkale,- chto s toboyu.

Travushka-muravushka - sochnaya, myatnaya -

Bez tebya lomayetsya, vetry duyut...

Dolyushka soldatskaya - ratnaya, ratnaya:

Chto, kak puli grud' tvoyu ne minuyut?!

Tropochku glubokuyu protopchu po polyu

I venok svoy svadebnyy vprok sov'yu,

Dlinnu kosu devich'yu - do polu, do polu -

Sberegu dlya milogo - s prosed'yu.

Vot voz'mut kol'tso moye s belogo blyuditsa,

Khorovod zavertitsya grustno v nem,-

Pust' moye gadaniye sbudetsya, sbudetsya:

Pust' vernetsya suzhenyy veshnim dnem!

Poy kak prezhde veselo, iduchi k domu, ty,

Tikhim slovom laskovym uteshay.

A zhit'ye nevestino - omuty, omuty...

Dozhidayet Mar'yushka - pospeshay!

1974
