Котику сіренький, котику біленький
Little grey kitten, little white kitten,
Котку Волохатий не ходи по хаті
Please do not wonder around the house
А-а а-а а-а а
А-а а-а а-а а
Не ходи по хаті не буди дитяти
Do no wonder around the house, you may wake up the baby
Дитя буде спати котик воркотати
And the baby should be sleeping, and the kitten - purring
А-а а-а а-а а
А-а а-а а-а а
Ой на Кота на Воркота
На Дитинку Дрімота

UKR-EN
Ой ходить сон коло вікон,
The Sleep is near the windows
А дрімота — коло плота.
And the Dreaming is near the fence
Питається сон дрімоти:
The Sleep asks the Dreaming:
— А де будем ночувати?
— Where shall we sleep?
— Де хатонька теплесенька,
— At the place where home is warm,
Де дитина малесенька,—
Where the baby is small, —
Там ми будем ночувати,
There we shall sleep,
Дитиночку колихати.
And lull the baby.
Ой на кота та воркота,
The kitten is covered with purring,
На дитину та й дрімота,
A baby is covered with dreaming,
Котик буде воркотати,
The kitten will be purring,
Дитинонька буде спати.
Small baby will be sleeping.

Little Pretty (cover)

Sleep little pretty
And dream of something fair and witty
And run little one until you find some answers
Run little one until you find her
Come, join the chorus
Sing a little folly for us
Run little one until you find some answers
Run little one until you find
Wind through the shutters
Who is hiding in the cupboard?
Run little one until you find some answers
Run little one until you find

Спи, Ісусе, спи, спатоньки ходи!
Sleep, little Jesus, come here to sleep!
Я Тебе му колисати,
I will be lulling You
Пісоньками присипляти
With my songs putting to bed
Cпи, Ісусе, спи, маленький, спи,
Sleep, Jesus, sleep my little, sleep,
Спи, серденько, спи.
Sleep, little heart, sleep.
Спи, Лелійко, спи, головку склони.
Sleep, little Lilly, sleep, put your head here.
Ту на рученьки Марії,
Here, onto Mary's lap,
Бач Вона Тебе леліє
See how gently is she lulling you?
Cпи, Ісусе, спи, маленький, спи,
Sleep, Jesus, sleep my little, sleep,
Спи, серденько, спи.
Sleep, little heart, sleep.
Спи, Ісусе, спи, Серце вітвори,
Sleep, Jesus, sleep, open your Heart,
Най при Ньому спочиваю
Let me have some rest near it
Ту на земли і там в раю
Here on earth and there in heaven.
Cпи, Ісусе, спи, маленький, спи,
Sleep, Jesus, sleep my little, sleep,
Спи, серденько, спи.
Sleep, little heart, sleep.

Winds From the Steppe

UKR-EN
Повіяв вітер степовий,
The wind from the steppe was blowing,
Трава ся похилила.
Pressing the tall grasses.
Впав в бою стрілець січовий,
A Sich soldier fell down,
Дівчина затужила. (2)
His beloved girl felt sadness in her heart. (2)
А був то хлопець молодий,
That was a very young guy,
Його б лишень кохати.
He was just to be loved.
Він впав, як той сухий листок,
He fell down like a dry leaf,
Повік буде лежати. (2)
He will always be lying now. (2)
Летить ворон з чужих сторон,
A raven is flying from the foreign lands,
Та й жалібненько кряче
Croaks painfully
Вставай, козаче молодий,
Please, stand up, young soldier,
Твоя дівчина плаче. (2)
Your loved one is crying. (2)
