Лесник [Lesnik] [English translation]

Tortured by the long road, I ran out of steam

And in the hut of ranger I begged for shelter him.

With friendly shiny smile the old man let me in

And greeted me with dinner that made my head spin.

Make yourself at home stranger, now the table’s set,

Stranger, now the table’s set, stranger, now the table’s set!

Plentiful of stories at your service can be said,

At your service can be said,

At your service can be said!

The outside was darker, I sat at table set

The old man chat beside me about this and that

About how he never had foes among the beasts

And how he brings some food for the wolves to feast

Make yourself at home stranger, now the table’s set,

Stranger, now the table’s set, stranger, now the table’s set!

Plentiful of stories at your service can be said,

At your service can be said,

At your service can be said!

Then sudden howls rang out just before the door.

The old man smiled at me and sudden left the floor.

But soon returned with rifle strapped around the back:

“My little friends are hungry, and you are their snack!”

Make yourself at home stranger, now the table’s set,

Stranger, now the table’s set, stranger, now the table’s set!

Plentiful of stories at your service can be said,

At your service can be said,

At your service can be said!
