Я́сный, зи́мний по́лдень... Моро́з кре́пок, трещи́т, и у На́деньки, кото́рая де́ржит меня́ под ру́ку, покрыва́ются серебри́стым и́неем ку́дри на виска́х и пушо́к над ве́рхней губо́й.
Jásnyj, zímnij póldenʹ... Moróz krépok, treščít, i u Nádenʹki, kotóraja déržit menjá pod rúku, pokryvájutsja serebrístym ínejem kúdri na viskáx i pušók nad vérxnej gubój.
