Текст песни Гнат Гончаренко - Дума Про Олексія Поповича

Oh on the Black Sea,
oh on the white fireplace
there sidiev falcon (sic) clear, (4) K C
whines and whines plaintively
and looks at the Black Sea together (sic),
that on the Black Sea everything bad begins,
an evil opposing wave rises,
Cossack and Molodechno ships
divides into three parts.
The first part caught -
brought to the Turkish land,
another part grabbed -
in the Danube mouth scored;
and the third part here has,
in the middle of the Black Sea,
on a fast wave,
drowns in a stormy blizzard.
Oh, at that part there were a lot of people,
who was the sergeant?
Hrytsko Kolomychyn
throughout the village (sic) is called
about the Cossacks in words,
tears (in) blivaya:
- Hey, Cossacks, gentlemen, well done,
you take good care
do not hide sins (sic),
confess in advance to the merciful god
and the Black Sea,
oh ataman basket.
(A) those (w) Cossacks heard that,
and all were silent,
(o) only (w) will call Alexey Popovich -
Zaporozhian hetman.
- Oh Cossacks, gentlemen, well done, you will do well,
me, Alexey Popovich,
take it yourself
tie a white stone to my neck,
my eyes are Cossack, well done
worm chinese stop,
oh, drop me into the Black Sea;
let me be
by his own head
Black Sea to give,
than I have many souls of Christian faith
on the Black Sea to destroy innocently.
(Oh) the same Cossacks heard that,
to Alexey Popovich spoke in words,
tears were shed:
- Hey, Alexei Popovich,
glorious knight,
clerk,
you read the letter three times a day read (sic)
and you, ordinary Cossacks, teach everything well, (sic)
why do you have more sins from us?
(Oh) Alexey Popovich hear that,
speaks in words
sheds tears:
- Hey Cossacks, gentlemen, well done,
I read a letter three times a day
and I teach you, ordinary Cossacks, everything well,
I have more sins than you,
that I went to the willing army,
I had a bad rest
he had no forgiveness from his father or mother
and he had no older brother than brother,
I respected my older sister very much,
oh pushing the stirrup at the chest,
or me, well done gentlemen,
most (s) of sins.
Oh, what ran out of the city,
three hundred souls of small children
horse smashed,
I shed innocent Christian blood.
Oh young wives ran out of the gate,
little kids grabbed,
I, Alexei Popovich, was cursed and cursed.
Oh, I ran through forty churches,
he did not take off his hat for his mourning,
he did not make a cross on himself
and did not mention the father's and mother's prayer,
or me, well-done Cossacks,
most of all, sin happened.
Oh, I ran past the royal community.
For his pride he did not take off his hat,
to men-Cossacks on a good day did not give,
not congratulating on the holiday,
or me, well-done Cossacks,
most of all, sin happened.
Oh, don't eat me, the Black Sea is drowning me,
and there is my paternal mother
prayer forbade death,
on the Black Sea did not drown.
(How) will I be to my father (sic),
to come to the mother, to the family,
I will protect and honor my father and mother,
and I will honor my elder brother as my own father,
and close neighbors for the brothers in the mother.
Soon Alexei Popovich became the truth
to confess the sins of God in truth,
now there was an evil opposing wave
on the Black Sea to calm down.
She fell silent
and fell,
languages ​​have never been on the Black Sea,
oh, all the Cossacks were nailed to the island alive.
Those Cossacks on the island (sic) came out,
tears were shed,
that on some Black Sea,
on a fast wave,
on a dashing blizzard
sunk,
o (sic) one through Alexei Popovich Cossack
from between the troops were not lost.
(Hey) Alexey Popovich miraculously leaves,
picks up the letter to the matchmaker,
reads three times a day,
oh he teaches all Cossacks everything:
- Listen, Cossacks, gentlemen, well done,
how this holy letter is enlightened,
for everything
