On Barabinski's open plain Fields are full or ripened grain. Lakes and rivers spread out o'er the wide terrain. See the beautiful crane wading there, Moving so gently among the reeds. Geese and swans are owners of the waters wild. The fields are wide on every hand, For their planting waits the land. All the family works the field for harvest grand.
