But people said
Wedding

Та казали люди, зять багач,
Та казали люди, грошій міх,
Викинув копійку, як на сміх!

New Year Carol (Shchedrivka)
Lyman, Kucherivka Area, Zmiivskyi District01:07

Чи дома, дома, пан-господар?
А я знаю, шо він дома.


А я знаю, що він дома,
Сидить він же кінець столу.


Сидить же він кінець столу,
А на йому шуба люба.


А на йому шуба люба,
А на той шубі ще й поясочок.

And millet on the stove
Wedding
Lyman, Kucherivka Area, Zmiivskyi District00:27

А на пічі просо,
Не дивись, зятю, косо,
Заглянь у кишеню,
Вийми грошей жме(ню),

Та кинь на тарілку,
Викупи свою кві(тку).

Lie, friends
Wedding

Брешете, дружечки, як свині,
В мене сорочок три скрині,
Матуся надбала, надбала,
Ще й у світилочки послала.
