New Year Carol (Shchedrivka)
Sheludkivka, Zmiivskyi District01:42

Меланія румнянія,
Меланія пребагата,
Щедрой вечор, доброй вечор,
Добрім людім на весь вечор!


Меланія пребагата,
Дала на церкву срібла, злата,
Щедрой вечор, доброй вечор,
Добрім людім на весь вечор!


Дала на церкву срібла, злата,
Злотом церкву й оббивала,
Золотом церкву й оббивала,
Нищих, убогих наділяла,
Щедрой вечор, доброй вечор,
Добрім людім на весь вечор!


Золотом церкву й оббивала,
Нищих, убогих наділяла,
Щедрой вечор, доброй вечор,
Добрім людім на весь вечор!


Нищих, убогих наділяла,
Чи чуєш, пан господарю?
Щедрой вечор, доброй вечор,
Добрім людім на весь вечор!


Дай, Боже, вечір добрий! Хоть маненьку та ціленьку!
