Лесник [Lesnik] [English translation]

Exhausted from the trip, I was dead tired.

And I asked a night-over in the house of a forester.

With a kind smile the old man let me in.

And with a friendly gesture he invited me to supper.

Fell at your home, traveler, I’ll do anything you want,

I’ll do anything you want, I’ll do anything you want!

I’ll tell you, if you want it, lots of stories,

I’ll tell you, if you desire,

I’ll tell you, if you desire!

It was getting dark in the street, I was sitting at the table.

The forester was sitting opposite, chattering about doesn’t matter what.

That among animals the old man has no enemies,

That he likes feeding the wolves.

Fell at your home, traveler, I’ll do anything you want,

I’ll do anything you want, I’ll do anything you want!

I’ll tell you, if you want it, lots of stories,

I’ll tell you, if you desire,

I’ll tell you, if you desire!

And during the night the wolves started howling at the window.

The old man made a little smile and suddenly left the house.

But soon he came back with a gun on his shoulder:

"Friends want to eat, let’s go, fellow, to the forest!"

Fell at your home, traveler, I’ll do anything you want,

I’ll do anything you want, I’ll do anything you want!

I’ll tell you, if you want it, lots of stories,

I’ll tell you, if you desire,

I’ll tell you, if you desire!
