Свадьба [Svad'ba] [English translation]

I was walking silently along a country road

It was empty and long

But harmonicas started to play loudly

And the silence threw its hands up in confusion

There was singing and dancing in the wedding party

It was carried off into the distance on wings

There was not enough space for all the people there

The sky and the earth were not big enough

There was not enough space for all the people there

The sky and the earth were not big enough

The wind fluttered behind the bride's veil

To the sounds of the country orchestra

The groom was very serious

And his bride was very young

There was singing and dancing in the wedding party

It was carried off into the distance on wings

There was not enough space for all the people there

The sky and the earth were not big enough

There was not enough space for all the people there

The sky and the earth were not big enough

Teams of horse-drawn troikas with tinkling bells

Flew past as if on wings wafting the smell of spring behind them

And I, still the unmarried one, continued on my way

Feeling sorry that I was not the groom

There was singing and dancing in the wedding party

It was carried off into the distance on wings

There was not enough space for all the people there

The sky and the earth were not big enough

There was not enough space for all the people there

The sky and the earth were not big enough
