Trang Barynya, sudarynya (English cover) A cover version of the original Russian folk song "Barynya, sudarynya" by Trang, adapted for an English-speaking audience

Peaceful the village, just four yards in all
Just four little yards, and a gate in each wall
Just four little yards, and a gate in each wall
And in the fifth yard lives my darling, my all

Lives so far away, yet he sends word to me
And I was young, clever as I could be
And I was young, clever as I could be
Took my small spindle, went to sit by the tree

I didn't spin much, just spent the night there
Spindle under the bench, with my love I lay rare
Spindle under the bench, with my love I lay rare
Then dawn lit the sky, so I rose from my care

Then dawn lit the sky, so I rose from my care
Walk to my courtyard — the old man's walking there
Where have you been? Tell me, where did you stay?
Nowhere, my old man, I slept on the stove all the way!

Barynya, barynya, barynya, sudarynya
Barynya, barynya, barynya, sudarynya
