Original lyrics
По Дону гуляет
По Дону гуляет, по Дону гуляет,
По Дону гуляет казак молодой.
А там дева плачет, а там дева плачет,
А там дева плачет над быстрой рекой.
"О чём, дева, плачешь, о чём, дева, плачешь,
О чём, дева, плачешь, о чём слёзы льёшь?"
"А как мне не плакать, а как мне не плакать,
А как мне не плакать, слёз горьких не лить:
Цыганка гадала, цыганка гадала,
Цыганка гадала, за ручку брала".
"Не быть тебе, дева, не быть тебе, дева,
Не быть тебе, дева, замужней женой.
Потонешь, девица, потонешь, девица,
Потонешь, девица, в день свадьбы своей".
"Не верь, дорогая, не верь дорогая,
Не верь, дорогая, не верь никому.
Поверь, дорогая, поверь, дорогая,
Поверь, дорогая, лишь мне одному".
По Дону гуляет, по Дону гуляет,
По Дону гуляет казак молодой.

Translation
By the Don river walks
By the don river walks, by the don river walks
By the Don river walks a young Cossack
There a maiden is crying, there a maiden is crying
There a maiden is crying, by the fast-flowing river
What for do you cry, maiden, what for do you cry, maiden
What for do you cry, maiden, what do you shed tears for ?
How can I not cry, how can I not cry
How can I not cry, and shed bitter tears
A gipsy fortune-teller, a gipsy fortune-teller
A gipsy fortune-teller, she wrote with her pen
You virgin shall not be, you virgin shall not be
You virgin shall not be, a married wife
You'll ruin yourself, damsel, you'll ruin yourself, damsel,
You'll ruin yourself, damsel, on your wedding day
Don't believe it, my dear, don't believe it, my dear
Dont' believe it, my dear, don't believe anyone
Believe, o my darling, Believe, o my darling
Believe, o my darling, in my words alone
By the don river walks, by the don river walks
By the Don river walks a young Cossack

who play stringed instruments and pipes. (Genesis 4:21)
