Ukrainian lyrics
Коляд, коляд, колядниця
А я в батька одиниця,
Коротенька юпочка-
Винось, бабко, бубличка.
Коротенький кожушок-
Винось, бабко, пиріжок.
Добрий вечір!
traditional Ukrainian carol
English language version
Carol, Carol, Carol Ann,
I’m the girl of my old man,
And I wear a little skirt,
And I want some meat to eat,
A jacket that is warm and dry,
And a nice big piece of pie.
Have a good night!
Sheena Phillips
