The Little Swallow Songtext
von Katie Melua

Shchedryk shchedryk, shchedrivochka,
Pryletila lastivochka,
Stala sobi shchebetaty,
Hospodarya vyklykaty:
"Vyydy, vyydy, hospodaryu,
Podyvysya na kosharu,
Tam ovechky pokotylys′,
A yahnychky narodylys'.
V tebe tovar ves′ khoroshyy,
Budesh' maty mirku hroshey,
V tebe tovar ves' khoroshyy,
Budesh′ maty mirku hroshey,
Khoch ne hroshey, to polova:
V tebe zhinka chornobrova."

(...khoch ne hroshey, to polova:

V tebe zhinka chornobrova.")


Shchedryk shchedryk, shchedrivochka,

Tam ovechky pokotylys′,
A yahnychky narodylys'.
V tebe tovar ves′ khoroshyy,

Budesh' maty mirku hroshey,
V tebe tovar ves′ khoroshyy,
Budesh' maty mirku hroshey,

To polova, to polova
Khoch ne hroshey, to polova:
V tebe zhinka chornobrova."

Shchedryk shchedryk, shchedrivochka,
Pryletila lastivochka.
