Peace,

Joey.

With a great pleasure

Рідна мати моя, ти ночей не доспала, - My dear mother, you didn’t sleep enough at nights
Ти водила мене у поля край села, - You were lead me to the fields on the village suburbs
І в дорогу далеку ти мене на зорі проводжала, - And you saw me off to the long way out on the dawn
І рушник вишиваний на щастя дала. - And you gave me the embroidered towel for luck

І в дорогу далеку ти мене на зорі проводжала, - And you saw me off to the long way out on the awn
І рушник вишиваний на щастя, на долю дала. - And you gave me the embroidered towel for luck, for chance

Хай на ньому цвіте росяниста доріжка, - Let the dewy path flowers on it
І зелені луги, й солов'їні гаї, - And the green meadows, and coppices with nightingales
І твоя незрадлива материнська ласкава усмішка, - And your tender faithful mother’s smile
І засмучені очі хороші твої. - And you sad nice eyes

І твоя незрадлива материнська ласкава усмішка, - And your tender faithful mother’s smile
І засмучені очі хороші, блакитні твої. - And you blue sad nice eyes

Я візьму той рушник, простелю, наче долю, - I’ll take your towel and spread it like the destiny
В тихім шелесті трав, в щебетанні дібров. - In the quiet rustle of grass, in the twitter of coppices
І на тім рушничкові оживе все знайоме до болю: - And on that little towel will become alive everything so painfully known
І дитинство, й розлука, і вірна любов. - And childhood, and parting, and faithful love

І на тім рушничкові оживе все знайоме до болю: - And on that little towel will become alive everything so painfully known
І дитинство, й розлука, й твоя материнська любов. - And childhood, and parting, and you faithful mother’s love

This is really a fabulous song
At first it was a poem and then became a song

Thank you so much for that... Its such a beautiful song and I would very much love to sing it! Peace! Joey.

www.youtube.com/RicanZouki76 if you are interested in hearing me sing in 10+ foreign languages...

I find Ukranian, along with Finnish & Italian to be the most musical languages that i'm aware of. I find your music a hidden gem, and I've been a long standing fan of Mr Hnyatuk.
I certainly hope that his health holds out for many years to come. In my book, he's one of the best base/baritones that i've had the pleasure to listen to, equal to or surpassing Cesare Siepi & Fernando Corena.

I don't know if this version is the one you like, RicanZouki. But here it is for everyone to enjoy.
