Under a Willow Russian folk song

Russian folk song - Under a Willow / Black Raven by Pelageya, Elmira Kalimyllina, Anry Gogniasvili, Maria Goya. Underneath a green willow Lied a wounded Cossack. Over flew a pitch black raven Started croaking in the bush. The black raven circled over Scenting very easy pray. Do not croak, oh you, black raven, In the bush above my head. Oy, oh you, black raven I, Cossack, am not yet dead. Better fly, oh you, black raven Home to my mom and dad. Give my bloody scarf, black raven To my dearest young wife. Tell her, tell oh you, black raven , That I married someone else. That new bride for me I found In the field on river bank. Very quiet was our wedding, Underneath a willow bush. The matchmaker was a saber, Best man was a bayonet. Married quickly by a bullet, Married by the mother earth .
