A daring guy is taking a girl to a ride, A black-browed girl. The guy flattered the shy girl, He lured her after him Into the wide steppe on a dark night. Well, cuddle up to me, honey, closer, I will ride with all my might I will rush my black horses It’s all for you, my sweetheart. Hey, we’ll fly across the wild steppe, my little bird, Your cheeks will be hot, will be sweet to your heart! Only the wind can see us here in the steppe, Don’t be ashamed my love! The bright hour has come for our love - Long awaited time! The guy flattered the shy girl, Lured her with a hot caress This night, this dark night. He cuddled his sweetheart closer, He rode with all his might And rushed his black horses It’s all for his sweetheart. Hey, we’ll fly across the wild steppe, my little bird, The girl’s cheeks became hot, will be sweet to her heart! ORIGINAL LYRICS: Под дугой колокольчик поёт, Под дугою, да под вязовою. Удалой парень девицу везёт, Девицу чернобровую. Улестил парень девку скромную, Заманил её за собою, В ширь степную ночью тёмною. Ну, прижмись ко мне, лапушка, тесней, Прокачу я что хватит силушки, Разгоню вороных своих коней Я для зазнобы-милушки. Эй, целиною по степи полетим, касатка, То ли будет щёчкам жарко, будет сердцу сладко! Здесь в степи только ветер видит нас, Не стыдись же, моя желанная, Для любви нашей пробил светлый час Порушка долгожданная. Улестил парень девку скромную, Заманил её жаркой лаской В эту ночку, ночку тёмную. Он прижал свою лапушку тесней, Прокатил что хватило силушки, Разогнал вороных своих коней Он для зазнобы-милушки. Эй, целиною по степи полетим, касатка, Стало девке щечкам жарко, будет сердцу сладко! #AnatolySolovyanenko #RedArmyChoir #BorisAlexandrov #russiansongs #folksongs -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Please watch: ““Here’s the Postal Troika Rushing“ - Leonid Kharitonov (1987)“ -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-
