“Lizaveta” [1] 

(Translated by Andrey)

You are waiting Lizaveta,
The privet from me, your friend.
You don't sleep up to a dawn
Because you pine about me.
When we shall win
I shall ride you
On a mettlesome battle horse.
When we shall win
I shall ride you
On a mettlesome battle horse.

I shall ride at a spring,
I shall open gates.
I and you are inseparable 
One with other for ever.
Do not stand on the threshold
With some anguish and some anxiety,
I shall return when snow will finish to melt.
Do not stand on the threshold
With some anguish and some anxiety,
I shall return when snow will finish to melt.

Oh, my beloved girl,
I am waiting and I am dreaming
How you will smile me on our meeting,
I was brave in combats.
Eh, how I want to live to see
Our wedding-marriage
And to embrace you, my beloved girl!
Eh, how I want to live to see
Our wedding-marriage
And to embrace you, my beloved girl!

Eh, how I want to live to see
Our wedding-marriage
And to embrace you, my beloved girl!

The Russian version (translit):

"Lizaveta"

Ty zhdiosh', Lizaveta, 
Ot druga priveta.
Ty ne spish' do rassveta, 
Vsio grustish' obo mne. 
Oderzhim pobedu, -
K tebe ia priedu 
Na goriachem boevom kone. 
Oderzhim pobedu, -
K tebe ia priedu 
Na goriachem boevom kone. 

Priedu vesnoiu, 
Vorota otkroiu. 
Ia s toboi, ty so mnoiu 
Nerazluchny vovek. 
V toske i trevoge 
Ne stoi na poroge, - 
Ia vernus', kogda rastaet sneg. 
V toske i trevoge 
Ne stoi na poroge, -
Ia vernus', kogda rastaet sneg. 

Moia dorogaia, 
Ia zhdu i mechtaiu. 
Ulybnis' mne, vstrechaia, - 
Byl ia khrabrym v boiu. 
Ekh, kak by dozhit' by 
Do svad'by-zhenit'by 
I obniat' liubimuiu svoiu! 
Ekh, kak by dozhit' by 
Do svad'by-zhenit'by 
I obniat' liubimuiu svoiu! 

Ekh, kak by dozhit' by 
Do svad'by-zhenit'by 
I obniat' liubimuiu svoiu!
