To bylo ranneju vesnoj,
trava jedva vskhodila,
ruch'i tekli, ne paril znoj,
i zelen' roshch skvozila;
Truba pastush'ja poutru
jeshchjo ne pela zvonko,
i v zavitkakh jeshchjo v boru,
byl paporotnik tonkij;
To bylo ranneju vesnoj,
v teni berjoz to bylo,
kogda s ulybkoj predo mnoj
ty ochi opustila...
To na ljubov' moju v otvet
ty opustila vezhdy!
O, zhizn'! o, les! o, solnca svet!
O, junost'! o, nadezhdy!
I plakal ja pered toboj,
na lik tvoj gljadja milyj;
to bylo ranneju vesnoj,
v teni berjoz to bylo!
To bylo v utro nashikh let!
O, schast'e! o sljozy!
O, les! o, zhizn'! o, solnca svet!
O, svezhij dukh berjozy!
