Boginya Ishtar
Ot strel i ot char,
Ot gnezd i ot nor,
Boginya Ishtar,
Khrani moy shater:
Brat'ev, sester.
Rudy moey var,
Vrazhdy moey chan,
Boginya Ishtar,
Khrani moy kolchan...
(Vzyal menya -- khan!)
Chtob ne zhil, kto star,
Chtob ne zhil, kto khvor,
Boginya Ishtar,
Khrani moy koster:
(Plamen' voster!)
Chtob ne zhil -- kto star,
Chtob ne zhil -- kto zol,
Boginya Ishtar,
Khrani moy kotel
(Zarev i smol!)
Chtob ne zhil -- kto star,
Chtob nezhil -- kto yun!
Boginya Ishtar,
Stremi moy tabun
V tridevyat' lun!
