In A Glade
(Ukranian Lyrics)
Oy v haiu, pri Dunaiu, solovei shchebeche
Vin svoiu vsiu ptashinu do hnizdechka kliche
Oy tioh tioh i tioh tioh tioh
Solovei shchebeche,
Vin svoiu vsiu ptashinu do hnizdechka kliche
Oy v haiu, pri Dunaiu, tam muzika hraie
Bas hude, skripka plache, miliy miy huliaie
Oy tioh tioh i tioh tioh tioh
Tam muzika hraie
Bas hude, skripka plache, miliy miy huliaie
Oy v haiu, pri Dunaiu, tuzhu samotoiu
Plachu, tuzhu, cheretaiu, miliy za toboiu
Oy tioh tioh i tioh tioh tioh
Solovei shchebeche,
Vin svoiu vsiu ptashinu do hnizdechka kliche
Oy tioh tioh i tioh tioh tioh
Tam muzika hraie
Bas hude, skripka plache, miliy miy huliaie

In the forest near the Danube river,
there is a nightingale singing,
he sings to gather everyone from his family
In the forest near the Danube river,
there is a bass vibrating and a fiddle crying,
I think of a place where my lovely one is strolling now
In the forest near the Danube river,
I am sick with my loneliness,
crying, I want to fly like a bird,
to where my lovely one is now.
