Lyrics Pink Martini

Pink Martini

Schedryk

Shchedryk shchedryk, shchedrivochka

Pryletila lastivochka

Stala sobi shchebetaty

Shchedryk shchedryk, shchedrivochka

Pryletila lastivochka

Stala sobi shchebetaty

Hospodarya vyklykaty

"Vyydy, vyydy, hospodaryu

Podyvysya na kosharu

Tam ovechky pokotylys'

A yahnychky narodylys'

V tebe tovar ves' khoroshyy

Budesh' maty mirku hroshey

V tebe tovar ves' khoroshyy

Budesh' maty mirku hroshey

Khoch ne hroshey, to polova

V tebe zhinka chornobrova"

Shchedryk shchedryk, shchedrivochka

Pryletila lastivochka

Shchedryk, shchedryk, a shchedrivka (New Year's carol)

A little swallow flew (into the household)

And started to twitter

To summon the master

"Come out, come out, O master (of the household)

Look at the sheep pen

There the ewes are nestling

And the lambkin have been born

Your goods (livestock) are great

You will have a lot of money, (by selling them)

Your goods (livestock) are great

You will have a lot of money, (by selling them)

If not money, then chaff: (from all the grain you will harvest)

You have a dark-eyebrowed (beautiful) wife"

Shchedryk, shchedryk, a shchedrivka

A little swallow flew
