Lyrics of Були на селi - Воплі Відоплясова

Були на селi (original)

Гей, були, були на селі,
Гей, були, були у Вороньках.
Гей, були, були на селі.
Гей були, були у Вороньках,
Правили храм.
Гей, були, були на селі,
Гей, були, були у Вороньках,
Правили храм, гуляли в дворі.
Їхали підводой
До дядька Івана,
У дворі сідали
Довгими рядками.
Сідали у мотоцикли,
Ганяли за горілкой,
Пили на сіновалі,
Травили анекдоти.
Були-ли на ставку,
Ловили коропів,
Зозуля кувала,
Рахувала тричі
Раз-два-три.
Різали утята,
Клали гілля в хаті,
Рвали поросяті.
Гей, були, були на селі.

(translation)

Hey, there were, there were in the countryside,
Hey, there were, there were in the Funnels.
Hey, there were, there were in the village.
Hey were, were in the Funnels,
They built a temple.
Hey, there were, there were in the countryside,
Hey, there were, there were in the Funnels,
They ruled the temple, walked in the yard.
We rode a cart
To Uncle Ivan,
They sat in the yard
Long lines.
We got on motorcycles,
Chased for vodka,
They drank in the hayloft,
Treated anecdotes.
Were at stake,
Caught carp,
Cuckoo forged,
I counted three times
One-two-three.
Cut ducklings,
They put branches in the house,
Piglets tore.
Hey, there were, there were in the village.
