      Хаджи́-Мура́т сел и сказа́л, что е́сли то́лько его́ пошлю́т на лезги́нскую ли́нию и даду́т ему́ во́йско, то он руча́ется, что подни́мет весь Дагеста́н, и Шамилю́ нельзя́ бу́дет держа́ться.
      Xadží-Murát sel i skazál, što jésli tólʹko jevó pošljút na lezgínskuju líniju i dadút jemú vójsko, to on ručájetsja, što podnímet vesʹ Dagestán, i Šamiljú nelʹzjá búdet deržátʹsja.
      Hadji Murad sat down, and said that if only they would send him to the Lesghian line and would give him an army, he would guarantee to raise the whole of Daghestan and Shamil would then be unable to hold out.
  2. Lezgi, Lezgian (the Northeast Caucasian language spoken by the Lezgins)
