Журавль в небе [Zhuravl' v nebe] [Transliteration]

Proletayut zhuravli vdaleke,

Obletayut na vetru topolya.

Govoryat, imet' sinitsu v ruke –

Eto luchshe, chem lovit' zhuravlya.

Mne vnushali, schast'ye nuzhno tsenit',

A inache proslyvosh' chudakom.

Luchshe maloye nadozhno khranit',

Chem nesbytochno mechtat' o bol'shóm.

Nu, a mne by; nu, a mne by !

Zhuravlya, kotoryy v nebe.

Bespolezna sinitsa v rukakh,

Yesli net zhuravlya v oblakakh.

Nu, a mne by; nu, a mne by !

Zhuravlya, kotoryy v nebe.

Bespolezna sinitsa v rukakh,

Yesli net zhuravlya v oblakakh.

Veroyatno, ya i vpravdu – chudak,

Nichego ne podelayesh' tut.

Mne sinitsu predlagayut «za tak»,

Mne udachu pryamo v ruki suyut.

Proletayut zhuravli vdaleke,

Obletayut na vetru topolya.

Govoryat, imet' sinitsu v ruke –

Eto luchshe, chem lovit' zhuravlya.

Nu, a mne by; nu, a mne by !

Zhuravlya, kotoryy v nebe.

Bespolezna sinitsa v rukakh,

Yesli net zhuravlya v oblakakh.

Nu, a mne by; nu, a mne by !

Zhuravlya, kotoryy v nebe.

Bespolezna sinitsa v rukakh,

Yesli net zhuravlya v oblakakh.

Nu, a mne by; nu, a mne by !

Zhuravlya, kotoryy v nebe.

Bespolezna sinitsa v rukakh,

Yesli net zhuravlya v oblakakh.

Nu, a mne by; nu, a mne by !

Zhuravlya, kotoryy v nebe.

Bespolezna sinitsa v rukakh,

Yesli net zhuravlya v oblakakh.
