I haven't watched this movie, but in Russian internet it's informed to be a mistake in the film - not Lermontov's but Pushkin's poem called "Узник". The poem with translation you could find here:

Yes, they are mistaken... not Lermontov, but Pushkin... and "The Captive" is a very popular poem by Pushkin)

Answer

Стих Лермонтова

Слышу ли голос твой
Звонкий и ласковый,
Как птичка в клетке
Сердце запрыгает;

Встречу ль глаза твои
Лазурно-глубокие,
Душа им навстречу
Из груди просится,

И как-то весело
И хочется плакать,
И так на шею бы
Тебе я кинулся.

Answer

I think  that it is Mciri (Мцыри) but I'm not sure
