Колечко [Kolechko] [English translation]

A quiet pier floated on the water

Where we always loved to meet

As you left, you promised to love me

And gave me a ring as a keepsake

Chorus:

A little ring as a keepsake, a ring

Now my heart is captive

Tell me, river, tell me, Rowan tree

Why I fell in love with him.

Tell me, river, tell me, Rowan tree

Why I fell in love with him.

A little ring as a keepsake...

You're far away in this big world,

You don't write to me often

And on my hand is this simple ring

It is both my sadness and my happiness

Chorus.

Oh, this grief is heavy

It would be better if I didn't love you

Then I wouldn't be waiting for you

Or go to this beloved pier.

Chorus.
