Надежда Плевицкая - Обещался Иванюша
текст песни

Ivanyusha promised
(The song is recorded in the Kursk province, they sing a song when they return from field work)

Ivanyusha promised
With villages Vanya men
All work to work

village and work
A lot of grief and annoyance
They sleep little nights

They fuss at each other
get out of the field
let the clouds not come in

eh, let's clouds, let not go
Strong rains did not soak
Here with that vanyushka longing

Here with that Vanya with longing boredom
He cut his hands with a sickle
His blood went with a stream

Eh village work
A lot of grief and annoyance
They sleep little nights
