| The goat smelled of hay and milk,
|
| A boy climbed on top of it.
|
| Several women were sitting on a bench by the gate.
|
| Boneless tongues, burdock ears,
|
| A bunch of gossip and all sorts of nonsense.
|
| And the boy turned out to be weak - he began to listen to them!
|
| It turned out that the godfather of the boy -
|
| After his wedding, he went crazy
|
| And his woman almost hanged herself from shame.
|
| That's the trouble and now always
|
| Wife keeps a man in a dirty barn
|
| She feeds him with hay and bran.
|
| Chorus:
|
| And the baby sees how weakly he sways
|
| A dim lamp in the barn and a hand
|
| Clutches the castle and a sad woman
|
| He puts his man on a chain.
|
| And the old woman in the house across the river
|
| Before you go to rest
|
| She stabbed three sons-in-law with her wooden stick.
|
| And by the farm there lives a boy like that,
|
| That the bull is raised with one hand,
|
| This is necessary, what a dashing one! |
| There is none stronger!
|
| Chorus:
|
| And the kid sees like a blind old woman
|
| She nailed a peasant to the wall with a stick.
|
| And like a boy of a heroic spirit
|
| Under his arm he carries a cow and a bull!
|
| There is no one who would not know a forester in the village,
|
| And I did not meet this grandfather in the forest.
|
| But no one can understand an eccentric!
|
| He collected animals, spoke, played,
|
| He understood them and always considered -
|
| Can a hare become like a person!
|
| Chorus:
|
| And the kid sees: a wonderful dance
|
| The grandfather is dancing with the animals by the hill.
|
| And how a hare becomes a man...
|
| On this, the poor fellow went crazy. |
