Chortyca [English translation]

Intro

Ah, how I was lost when I entrusted the evil woman!

Ah, how I was lost when I entrusted her with my heart!

Let them give this love to the dogs! I do not want it, I do not want her!

Let them take her love to hell! Her and her relatives!

Let them give this love to the dogs! I do not want it, I do not want her!

Let them take her love to hell! Her and her relatives!

How I longed when I thought that I was loved sincerely,

How many tears I poured out when I discovered this terrible betrayal!

Let them tear straps of my skin - I do not want to live, I want to fight!

Let the Turk take it all in slavery, and let the devil take my soul!

Let them tear straps of my skin* - I do not want to live, I want to fight!

Let the Turk take it all in slavery, and let the devil take my soul!

Let the Turk take it all in slavery, and let the devil take my soul!

Husband:

Ah, how I was lost when I entrusted the evil woman!

Ah, how I was lost when I entrusted her with my heart!

Let them give this love to the dogs! I do not want it, I do not want her!

**Let them take her love to hell! Her and her relatives!

Let them take her love to hell! Her and her relatives!

Husband:

Woe is me!

Oh, my despair!

Woe is me!

Woe!

Woe is me!

Oh, my despair!

Woe is me!

Ah, how I was lost when I entrusted the evil woman!

Ah, how I was lost when I entrusted her with my heart!

Let them give this love to the dogs! I do not want it, I do not want her!

Let them take her love to hell! Her and her relatives!

Husband:

Woe is me!

Oh, my despair!

Woe is me!

Woe!

Woe is me!

Oh, my despair!

Woe is me!

Husband:

I will beat the pagans, the Tartars, the Cossacks,

As long as my vile life will stick to me,

And when the cunning fate gives me my death,

I will accept it joyfully, like salvation!

Iron blades, sabers, arrowheads, bullets

Can’t cause me bigger pain anymore.

Suffering of all kinds is welcomed today,

Rather than the torture you gave me!

Husband:

Ah, how I was lost when I entrusted the evil woman!

Ah, how I was lost when I entrusted her with my heart!

Let them give this love to the dogs! I do not want it, I do not want her!

Let them take her love to hell! Her and her relatives!

Let them give this love to the dogs! I do not want it, I do not want her!

Let them take her love to hell! Her and her relatives!
