     Oh, you! with one arm,
Having lost second among combat,
     They did not stay in peace,
But, as an eagle tribe
     Suitable – with one hand in combat
Going! I send you the song,
     Like a farewell tear!...
No matter how low, tiny,
     But, once, once, maybe also it,
Like a seed by gales spread,
     Will see in homeland a merrier time;
Let then it will remind: you,
     Who you went with one hand in combat!
Calling: God look! Tzar halt!...
     When second hand from the ground jutted
And » look « for lightning to God called.
