Song language: English
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, don |
Donna, donna, donna, donna |
Donna, donna, donna, don |
Stop complaining, said the farmer |
Who told you a calf to be? |
Why don’t you have wings to fly with |
Like the swallow so proud and free? |
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 etc. |
Calves are easily bound and slaughtered |
Never knowing the reason why |
But whoever treasures freedom |
Like the swallow has learned to fly |
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 etc. |
