Текст песни Гей ви, стрільці січовії - Стрілецька маршова

Hey, you Sich shooters,
One, two, three,
Our girls have a beating heart,
Once two, three.
You go ahead, give in,
Don't look at anything,
Once, twice, once, twice, once, twice, three.

Ahead the centurion goes,
One, two, three.
He will go to hell with us.
One, two, three.
The guy himself is brave.
Beneath it the grasshopper is very lively,
Once, twice, once, twice, once, twice, three.

Mr. Captain, what happened?
One, two, three,
That we have very little money?
One, two, three.
We have not eaten bread for three days,
Only drank cold water,
Once, twice, once, twice, once, twice, three.

Do not tell us in our eyes,
One, two, three,
That didn't take our money,
One, two, three.
Tell me, tell me what happened,
That we have very little money,
Once, twice, once, twice, once, twice, three.

Captain, did you hear
One, two, three.
Like the music in the inn humming,
One, two, three.
Whose money did you drink for?
And the gypsy girl loved?
Once, twice, once, twice, once, twice, three.

Remember, commanders,
One, two, three,
So that the collars do not fly *,
One, two, three.
Because shooters know all the secrets,
But you are not respected,
Once, twice, once, twice, once, twice, three.
Hey, you Sich shooters,
One, two, three,
Our girls have a beating heart,
Once two, three.
You go ahead, give in,
Don't look at anything,
Once, twice, once, twice, once, twice, three.

This song is often perceived as Ukrainian folk. In fact, it is a humorous shooting song of a song popular with neighboring nations. Polish version of the military song "Dalej, bracia" (Piosenka lwowskich legionistów. Marsz. 1914 r.)
Life on Transcarpathia left a significant mark on shooting songs. Some Transcarpathian and Lemko melodies were played there, and some purely Hungarian melodies, to which the Ukrainian text is attached, slipped there. Songs like "Hey, you Sich shooters" or "Oh, neighbor" were just joke songs for shooters.

Hey you, Sich Riflemen, one-two-three.
Our girls have a beating heart, once, twice or three times.
You give way forward and don't look back,
Chorus: Once or twice, once or twice, once or twice.

Our hundred is ready once-two-three
Perform from Kiev once-two-three
Across Europe, everyone jumped and sang like that

The Berlin Reich collapsed once or twice
As I heard the thud of a horse once or twice or three
A hundred people are going to Munich and will go to hell as they should

When they left London once, twice, three times
All the girls there sang once, twice, three times
And they rushed to Pisa and sat down near the tower

How Mazarini served once, twice, three times
They stormed all the strongholds once, twice or three times
When Dunkirk the Sagittarians took all this taught

Oh on the Mountain in Montmartre once-two-three
Sagittarians are already on guard once-two-three
Sagittarius jumps over Paris, let our enemies cry

Here is the Triumphal Arch once or twice
Our glory will not perish once or twice
And in the fields of the Elysee hundreds jump past the museums

They are already in the Consent Square once-two-three
Glory to our People once-two-three
And under the tower of Ephel from the enemies will be meatballs

And they went to the Louvre once or twice or three times
They looked at Venus once, twice, three times
They winked at the Mona Lisa and dragged her like that

In Notre Dame, the bells ring once, twice, three times
Sagittarians are already chasing enemies once or twice
Near the Seine singing is heard, our hundred are walking there

In Europe, the storm is one-two-three
The Cossacks do not stop once or twice
Thunder roars across Europe as the Cossack wants

Hey you Sich Riflemen (in English)

Hey, you Striltsi from Ukraine, one-two-three.
All the girls do love you madly, one-two-three.
Go forward, be courageous, the retreat is out of question.
Refrain: One-two, one-two, one-two-three.

The commander leads us forward, one-two-three.
And for hell with us he's ready, one-two-three.
He's a brave chap, oh be sure, and his horse is like a devil.

Sir commander, what has happened, one-two-three.
No money, we are threatened, one-two-three.
For three days without bread, only water cold and sad.
