Original lyrics
Кисіль
Ой мій милий заболів,
Киселечку захотів
Ой, рано, ранесенько
Киселечку захотів
А як я-то молода
Не лінива я була,
Ой, пішла по селу
Купувати киселю.
Приспів:
Цить, милий, не вмирай,
Киселечку дожидай.
Не вмирай, не вмирай,
Ти, надьожа, моя,
Дожидай, дожидай,
Радість дорога моя.
Не добула киселю,
А добула вівса,
Ой, і сох той овес,
Руський місяць увесь.
Приспів.
Учинила той кисіль
На шістнадцять неділь,
Уже кисіль кисне.
З милого дух тисне.
Приспів.
Уже кисіль клекотить,
З милого дух виходить.
Поки кисіль ізкипів,
Та мій милий одубів.
Приспів.
Translation
Kissel
Oh, my dear one fell ill,
Wanted some kissel.
Oh, early, so early in the morning
Wanted some kissel.
And back when I was young,
I wasn’t lazy,
Oh, I went through the village
To buy some kissel.
Refrain:
Shhh, my darling, don’t die,
Wait for your kissel.
Don’t die, don’t die,
My hope,
Wait, wait,
My dear joy.
I didn’t get some kissel,
But I got some oats.
Oh, those Ruthenian oats
Dried for a whole month.
Refrain.
I’ve made the kissel
To be ready in sixteen weeks.
The kissel is getting sour,
My darling is breathing his last.
Refrain.
The kissel is bubbling,
My darling’s soul is leaving him.
By the time the kissel is boiling,
My darling have already grown cold.
Refrain.
