Jingle Bells [Russian translation]

(Refrain:)

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!

O What fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh,

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!

O What fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh.

Dashing through the snow,

in a one-horse open sleigh

Over the fields we go,

Laughing all the way.

Bells on bobtail ring,

Making spirits bright

What fun it is to ride and sing

A sleighing song tonight!

(Refrain)

A day or two ago

I thought I'd take a ride,

And soon, Miss Fanny Bright

Was seated by my side.

The horse was lean and lank,

Misfortune seemed his lot,

He got into a drifted bank

And then we got upsot.

(Refrain)

A day or two ago,

The story I must tell

I went out on the snow,

And on my back I fell.

A gent was riding by

In a one-horse open sleigh,

He laughed as there I sprawling lie,

But quickly drove away.

(Refrain)

Now the ground is white,

Go it while you're young;

Take the girls tonight,

And sing this sleighing song.

Just get a bobtailed bay,

Two-forty as his speed,

Hitch him to an open sleigh

And crack! you'll take the lead.

(Refrain)
