Three merry tongue twisters from Russia

We have got several tongue twisters in Russian that are quoted quite often: Klara ukrala u Karla Korally, a Karl u Klary ukral klarnet.
Clara has stolen corals from Carl, and Carl has stolen a clarinet from Clara.Na dvore - trava, na trave - drova, ne rubi drova na trave dvora.
There is grass in the garden, there is firewood on the grass, don't cut firewood on the grass of the garden.The next one is sometimes considered to be childish since it is much simpler: Yekhal Greka tcherez reku, vidit Greka v reke rak; sunul Greka ruku v reku, rak za ruku Greku tsap.
Greka was walking across the river, Greka saw a lobster in the river; Greka put his hand in the river, and the lobster snatched Greka's hand.

The dust is flying in the air over the field caused by the clatter of horses' hoofs flies.

Not a lobster but a crayfish.
