Ансамбль Лествица - Карывать моя, карыватушка
текст песни

My bed, oh my little bed,
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, my little bed.
My bed, you are made of yew wood,
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, made of yew wood.
You are yew wood, and you are merry,
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, and you are merry.
Who was it that built you, my bed?
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, who built my bed?

He built it, he built it—my hateful husband!
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, my hateful husband!
He built it, he built it, while bringing in other men's wives,
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, bringing in other men's wives.
But his own wife—he tossed her this way and that,
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, tossed her this way and that.
This way and that, and in every direction,
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, in every direction.

I will go to the meadow, and I will find seven men,
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, I will find seven men.
I will come home, leading a whole herd of them,
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, leading a whole herd.

To my bed—to the one made of yew wood,
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, to the one made of yew wood.
To the one made of yew, and the one made of spruce,
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, and the one made of spruce.

Do not quarrel, and do not fight,
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, do not fight.
Part ways with a clear conscience,
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, part ways.
With a clear conscience, and with loving kindness,
Oh, lyuli, lyuli, with loving kindness.
