Translation of the song Як ішов я вчора artist Khrystyna Soloviy

Ukrainian

Як ішов я вчора

English translation

As I Was Walking Yesterday

Як ішов я вчора ввечір світив місяць височко,

As I was walking yesterday evening the moon was shining high.

Мила в вікно позирала чи мо’ дийшов далечко.

My sweetheart was watching through the window whether I moved far away.

Одійшов я пару кроків, вона за мною кричала:

I walked a couple of steps and she cried behind me

– Ой вернися, цвітку милий, чим я тя прогнівала.

Oh, come back my dear blossom. How have I provoked your wrath?

Та й за нашим, віриш, тором є зелені, як ловець,

Will you believe, behind our field boundary there's a lot of greenery.

Ходив до нас на зальоти ни паробок, ни вдовець.

Someone was courting me there, neither single, nor a widower.

Мамцю моя премилена, я за нього не піду,

Mother, my dear, I won't marry him.

А ни йому ручки не дам, хоч ся никда не видам.

I won't give him my hand even if I never get married.

Як ішов я вчора ввечір світив місяць височко,

As I was walking yesterday evening the moon was shining high.

Мила в вікно позирала чи мо’ дийшов далечко

My sweetheart was watching through the window whether I moved far away.
