Band: Кочетков Михаил
Album: Когда накроюсь медным тазом...
Song: Donna donna

On a wagon bound for market
There's a calf with a mournful eye
High above him there's a swallow
Winging swiftly through the sky

How the winds are laughing
They laugh with all their might
Laugh and laugh the whole day through
And half the summer's night

Donna donna donna donna 
Donna donna donna down 
Donna donna donna donna 
Donna donna donna down

"Stop complaining," said the farmer
"Who told you a calf to be"
Why don't you have wings to fly away
Like the swallow so proud and free?"

Calves are easily bound and slaughtered 
Never knowing the reason why
But whoever treasures freedom
Like the swallow must learn to fly
