   Here for example you can find several songs with their translation but I am   
   not sure one can sing the translation. They suppose the reader sings the   
   original Russian text written using Latin characters.   
   http://www.kaikracht.de/balalaika/english/songs/   
   And not all songs there are really Russian. For instance, "Evening bells" was   
   translated from English, "Suliko" is a Georgian song and "Tum Balalaika" is in   
   Jiddish, not in Russian.   
      
   Here is one more link:

   I do not think the quality of translation is good, sorry.
