A Pasternak translation from Russian to phonetic Russian?

Question by mask vs venom!!!: A Pasternak translation from Russian to phonetic Russian please?
It is ‘February’ which Regina Spektor sings part of in one of her songs. I want to learn it in Russian but I can’t read the Cyrillic – can you translate it to phonetic Russian?

Февраль. Достать чернил и плакать!
Писать о феврале навзрыд,
Пока грохочащая слякоть
Весною черною горит.

Достать пролетку. За шесть гривен
Чрез благовест, чрез клик колес
Перенестись туда, где ливень
Еще шумней чернил и слез.

Где, как обугленные груши,
С деревьев тысячи грачей
Сорвутся в лужи и обрушат
Сухую грусть на дно очей.

Под ней проталины чернеют,
И ветер криками изрыт,
И чем случайней, тем вернее
Слагаются стихи навзрыд.

(I can only find one stanza in phonetic:
Fevrale dostat chernil i plakat
Pisat O Fevrale navsnryd
Poka grohochushaya slyakot
Vesnoyu charnoyu gorit)

Thanks :>

Fevrál…Dostat´ cherníl y plakat´
Pisat´o fevrale navzrid
Poka grokhochascaya sliakot
Vesnoyu chernoyu gorit

Dostat´ proletku za shest´griven´
Cherez blagovest,cherez klik koles
Perenestis´ tuda,gde liven´
Yesce shumney chernil y slez.

Gde,kak obuglenniye grushi
S dereviyev tisiachi grachey
Sorvutsia v luzhi y obrushat
Sukhuyu grust´na dno ochey

Pod ney protalini cherneyut
Y veter krikami izrit
Y chem sluchayney,tem verneye
Slagayutsia stikhi navzrid.
