A Lovely Rose

A lovely rose - saidi Mariam
A lovely rose - saidi Mariam
One day, I was hunting on my horse in the hills
Just when you were singing at the bottom of the hill, with a voice gentle like the clouds
I was mesmerised by your voice and I rolled down the hill
Ay-ya-ya, your voice is gentle like the clouds

A strong Kazakh youth - Ivan Dudar
Tonight, I invite you to come across the river to my house
After you feed your horse, bring your dombra
Once the moon rises, let me play the dombra's strings
Ay-ya-ya, both of us sing together under the trees
 

Shush, sweet baby

Shush, sweet baby
Little calf, in the pit
Dad and mom so far from the house
I can't yell to them

Duru Duru (A danceable song)

I’m beautiful and I realize that
Even mom told me so
I resemble the sun
I look like a golden lily
 
Give me your heart, Therese
I’ll give it back in the morning
If I won’t give it back unharmed
Tell me how much I have to pay
 
One cuts, another slices
Each in his own way
Why don’t you come and dance?
Because your mom doesn’t want to?
 
Wife, my wife
My wife is small
I cuddle her like a doll
When I touch her breast
She tells me: may your hand get withered!
 
The women from Nuoro
Are hard like stones
It takes a long time
To know their heart
 
Godmother, since she hasn’t a coffee pot,
Has put the coffee in my backside
She grabs her husband by the mustache
And throws him into the fireplace
 

I saw the wolf

I saw the wolf, the fox and the hare,
I saw the wolf and the fox dancing,
All three were turning around the tree
I saw the wolf, the fox and the hare,
All three were turning around the tree
All three were turning around the leafy shrub
 
Here, we toil laboriously all the year
To earn some coins,
And after one month,
I saw the wolf, the fox and the hare,
We have nothing left,
I saw the wolf, the fox and the hare.
 

My Dear Biday

Versions: #2
my dear biday, open, if you will
and talk to me from your window sill
i am so lost and i am so sad
for without your love, i'm as good as dead
 
why do you pass through my garden grove
are you in search of someone to love?
i'm just a lass in my playtime hour
i am still a bud and not yet a flower
 
listen, young man, i bid you go east
to get some fruit for a little feast
get mango fruit if you do not mind
get lansones, too - there are many kinds.
 
if fruit is low do not pluck or pick
if fruit is high do not use a stick
if fruit has fallen , then skip it too
you may walk around, only to and fro
 
if i should drop my li'l hanky dear
the man who finds it will bring it here
my name is there as embroidered mark
with a nice design in shape of a heart
 
i sense your grudge and your anger, too
i feel so sad that you hate me so
you might as well stab me with a knife,
end my breaking heart and my lonely life
 

Without Father

I’ve seen her passing by, just now:
she held her son in her arms, crying,
she was hugging him tightly to her bosom
because he no longer has his father's love.
 
She raises her beautiful child
never telling about her sad misfortune,
but he must know, because mom sings,
because every night she sings to him this way:
 
Sleep, you, my son,
sleep, my dear child,
anyway you know that God
can’t abandon you.
 
Dad has gone in flight,
sad is your destiny,
your mom, in life and in death,
always will console you.
 
Sleep, sleep…
 

Lucky

What I love most in you is your hair,
Your eyes, so joyful, make boys’ head turn.
But, speaking frankly and clearly, I’m one of them.
 
On Sunday morning, when you go out dressed up,
By foreigners and countrymen, by everyone you are noted.
Everybody wonders with whom you are in love.
 
With your rich clothing, coloured in white and red,
You look like a flower, talking to you enchants any heart.
Very happy will be he who will make love to you.
 
I want to write your name on every star.
Lovely girls like you are no longer born in the village.
Lucky will be he who will put a ring on your finger.
 
Lucky will be he who will put a ring on your finger.
