Oh, quiet Danube
Recruit
Dvorichna, Dvorichanskyi District02:25

Ой тихий Дунай, ой тихий Дунай бережки обносить,
Ой молоденький ой новобранчик полковничка просить. (двічі).

Ой полковничку, ой мій батечку, одпусти ж додому,
Ой розплакалась, ой розтужилась дівчина за мною. (двічі)

Ой нехай плаче, ой нехай туже, вона й перетуже,
Ой молоденький ой новобранчик три года прослужить. (двічі)

Tap, tap the boot
Nursery Rhyme
Dvorichna, Dvorichanskyi District00:17

Куй, куй, чобіток,
Подай, бабо, молоток,
Не подаси молотка,
Не підкую чобітка.

Криничка, криничка,
Холодна водичка,
Криничка, криничка,
Тепленька водичка.
Тьфу, тьфу, тьфу!
