Steppe all around -- famous Russian folk song with double subtitles

 

СТЕПЬ ДА СТЕПЬ КРУГОМ The most famous old Russian folk songs. Double subtitles. Performed by the Omsk Folk Choir Степь да степь кругом, путь далёк лежит. В той степи глухой умирал ямщик. И набравшись сил, чуя смертный час, он товарищу отдавал наказ. Ты, товарищ мой, не попомни зла. Здесь степи глухой, схорони меня. Ты коней моих сведи к батюшке. Передай поклон родной матушке. А жене скажи слово прощальное, передай кольцо обручальное. Про меня скажи, что в степи замерз. А любовь её я с собой унёс. Степь да степь кругом, путь далёк лежит. В той степи глухой умирал ямщик. ____________________ Only steppe all around Our way is going to be long. On that deserted steppe A coachman was freezing to death. And he gathered his strength, Feeling the death coming, He was asking, was asking, was asking His friend: You, my friend! Don't keep evil in your mind. On that deserted steppe Bury me. You bring the raven Horses to my father Bow for me To my dear, dear, dear mother. And say to my wife My last word, Bring her A wedding ring. And say that I froze to death in the steppe. And that I took her love With me. Nothing but the steppe all around, Our way is going to be long. On that deserted steppe A coachman was freezing to death.
