Like night upon its features
Looms up to frighten us
Each tree, in a bear's region;
Cruel plots in Holy Rus.
Empire of snows. Hut on hut
What despairs, for a veneer
Of civilization. An idea
As long held in its fear
The land's own, white, pure, shining.
That of it,but gives rise
To prayer's mighty warriors.
We'd have march otherwise!
