| From the fair, a merchant rode,
|
| Ukhar-merchant is a daring fellow.
|
| The merchant decided to water the horses,
|
| I decided to surprise the village with a revelry.
|
| Went out into the street cheerful and drunk
|
| In a red shirt, handsome and ruddy.
|
| Old and young he drinks wine,
|
| Drink, drink, live, make money.
|
| Red girls frown, drink,
|
| They dance, play and sing songs
|
| A merchant pesters a shy girl,
|
| He beckons, kisses, takes by the hand.
|
| The beautiful mother was quick,
|
| With a proud speech, she approached the merchant -
|
| Oh, you merchant, oh, do not indulge,
|
| Do not dishonor my daughter, do not kiss.
|
| Ukhar-merchant rang silver, -
|
| No, it's not necessary, we'll find another one.
|
| All over the village the lights went out,
|
| The old ones, the little ones went to sleep.
|
| And only one hut does not go out the night light,
|
| An old man is sleeping on the stove.
|
| In an old shirt, holey bast shoes,
|
| A crumpled hat lies in the heads.
|
| The old woman prays to God,
|
| You should cry, she doesn't cry.
|
| Slavushka went all over the village,
|
| The beautiful daughter came at dawn.
|
| The beautiful daughter came at dawn,
|
| She brought a full hem of silver.
|
| She brought a full hem of silver,
|
| The girl's conscience was flooded with wine.
|
| From the fair, a merchant rode,
|
| Ukhar-merchant is a daring fellow.
|
| I rode cheerful and drunk from the fair,
|
| In a red shirt, handsome and ruddy. |
