GOLDEN SPRINGTIME
Russian Folk Songs with English Translations p. 20 # 15

Gol-den in Spring is the sun-shine at morn,
Glad time for sow-ing of bar-ley and corn;
Sing-ing, the lads to their la-bour go by
Who is so hap-py in Spring-time as I,
In spring-time as I?

Dew on the ploughland and dew on the park,
Carolling, out from its nest soars the lark;
Sings, like the lads as they watch him on high
Who is so happy in sprintime as I?
In spring time as I?
