На лужайке, возле леса, Что задумчив так всегда, Мы пасём с утра до ночи, Колхозные стада. И сижу я на пригорке, С дудочкой сижу своей. Не могу я наглядеться На красу страны моей. В яркой зелени деревья И красивы, и стройны А в полях цветут колосья, Прелести полны. Ой, ой, лю-лю! То мне ветка улыбнётся Колосок вдруг подмигнёт, - Чувство радости великой В сердце искрою сверкнёт. Пой же, дудочка простая! Так легко нам петь вдвоём! Слышат горы и долины, Как мы радостно поём! Только, дудочка не плакать! Прошлую забудь печаль. И пускай твои напевы Мчатся в ласковую даль. Ой, ой, лю-лю! Я в своём колхозе счастлива. Слышишь, жизнь моя полна! Веселее, веселее, дудочка, Ты петь должна!

Dans une prairie, près de la forêt, qui est toujours pensive, du matin jusqu'au soir, nous gardons le troupeau du kolkhoze. Et je suis assise là sur une colline, je suis assise avec ma petite flûte, et je ne peux pas regarder assez la beauté de mon pays. Les arbres couverts d'un feuillage éclatant se tiennent si gracieusement et si délicatement, dans les champs le blé mûrit plein de bonté et de délices. Oy, oy, lyou-lyou ! Maintenant une branche me sourira, puis me fera un clin d'œil. et un sentiment de grande joie allumera une étincelle dans mon cœur. Alors chante, ma petite flûte ! Ensemble nous chantons tranquillement ! Les montagnes et les vallées écoutent notre chant plein de joie. Seulement, ne pleure pas, ma flûte ! Oublie les chagrins du passé, et laisse couler tes mélodies sur le pays gracieux. Oy, oy, lyou-lyou ! Le kolkhoze me rend heureuse, entends-tu ? Ma vie est si pleine ! plus gaiement, plus gaiement, ma flûte, tu dois chanter !
