"Korobeiniki" is a nineteenth-century Russian folk song that tells the story of a meeting between a peddler and a girl, describing their haggling over goods in a metaphor for courtship. The song is most well-known outside of Russia for its inclusion in various versions of the video game ''[[Wikipedia:Tetris|Tetris]]'', most notably the arrangement by [[Wikipedia:Hirokazu_Tanaka|Hirokazu Tanaka]] for the [[Wikipedia:Tetris_(Game_Boy_video_game)|Game Boy version]] of ''Tetris''. Both the ''Tetris'' and Ozma arrangements of the song are instrumentals.
