Note: All transliteration of Cyrillic into Roman characters is defective. This sample of Cyrillic transcription is literal, and does not reflect that -e- is pronounced -ye (as in morye, nalivayetsya) or sometimes as -yo- (in certain stressed syllables, as in Molodyozhnaya). Likewise, -o- in unstressed syllables is pron. -a- so molodyozhnaya is actually pron. like maladyozhnaya. You also will not see the palatalized consonants as in -bud'im -bud'im -bud'im, but you can hear them on the record. Also: this CMT arrangement shows two verses, but there are at least three more! Do svidaniya, lyubimye!
