New Year Carol (Shchedrivka)
Vyazova, Krasnokutskyi District03:57

А в нашого пана береза стояла,
Щедрий вечір!
Тонка та висока на листя широка,
Добрий вечір!

А тую березу гляділа Ганнуся,
Щедрий вечір!
Гляділа-гляділа та й міцно заснула,
Добрий вечір!

Налетіли пташки, пташки-конорейки,
Щедрий вечір!
Листя обламали, кору обчухрали,
Добрий вечір!

Прокинулася молода Ганнуся,
Щедрий вечір!
Пташок позганяла, кору позбирала,
Добрий вечір!

Та й понесла до золотаренка,
Щедрий вечір!
Золотарику, ти ж мій братіку,
Добрий вечір!

Ізроби віночок, золотий перстньочок,
Щедрий вечір!
А з остаточку золоту чарочку,
Добрий вечір!
