yesli b ya byl sultan, ya b imel tryokh zhyon
i troynoy krasotoy byl by okruzhyon
no s drugoy storony, pri takikh delakh
stolʹko bed i zabot, akh, spasi allakh!

neplokho ochenʹ imetʹ tri zheny
no ochenʹ plokho s drugoy storony!

zulʹfiya moy khalat gladit u doski
shʹyot gyuli, a fatʹma shtopayet noski
tri zheny krasota, chto ni govori
no s drugoy storony tyoshchi tozhe tri!

neplokho ochenʹ imetʹ tri zheny
no ochenʹ plokho s drugoy storony!

kak bytʹ nam, sultanam, yasnostʹ tut nuzhna
skolʹko zhyon v samyy raz? tri ili odna?
na vopros na takoy yestʹ otvet prostoy
yesli b ya byl sultan byl by kholostoy!

neplokho ochenʹ sovsem bez zheny
gorazdo luchshe s lyuboy storony!

neplokho ochenʹ sovsem bez zheny
gorazdo luchshe s lyuboy storony!

neplokho ochenʹ sovsem bez zheny
gorazdo luchshe s lyuboy storony!
