Byli --- postrojki, sarai, doma
Bylo --- i budet: zima.

Pod oblakami tol'ko luna
Vidish': --- skuchaet odna

My zhe s toboj, pod ledyanoj lunoj
Vspomni: --- ax, bozhe moj!

My zhe s toboj proxodili vdali
Vdal', dobirayas' do novoj zemli
Zhili, smotreli vse dni naprolet
Kak indevel, zagorayas', vosxod
Kak, pozhiraya i nochi i dni
K nam po sledam dobiralis' oni
Gospodi: --- korabli.

Brosit'sya v vecher, v zakatnuyu mglu
Znali my, znali, chto budet s togo
Brali bespechno, otdali zolu
I nam v otvet ``--- Nichego, nichego...''

Brali bespechno, lyubili sprosta
Videli sneg, a smotreli --- vdali
Chut' ne otdavshi v ugli, kak v usta
Plyli, kak lebedi, korabli.
