She asked for a small amount of money not highly valuing her work. "What's your name, young lady?" And the young lady replies: "You'll hear my name In the clatter of your horse's hooves." I rode along the street, I galloped the roads, And along the path among brown rocks, And among gray rocks. "Masha? Zina? Dasha? Nina?.." None seem to be her name. "Katya! Katya!" - was sounded to me By my racer's horseshoes. And since that time, whether I ride Or whether I gallop - "Katya, Katya, Katerina..." I diligently whisper. What a muddle-head I am! Because I have another girlfriend! But I cannot get Katya, like a song, Out from my soul, brother! Once a dark-eyed Cossack girl Shod my horse. She asked for a small amount of money Not highly valuing her work. What's your name, young lady? And the young lady replies: "You'll hear my name In the clatter of your horse's hooves." "You'll hear my name In the clatter of your horse's hooves." +++ ORIGINAL LYRICS: Черноглазая казачка Подковала мне коня. Серебро с меня спросила, Труд недорого ценя. Как зовут тебя, молодка? А молодка говорит: Имя ты мое услышишь Из под топота копыт. Я по улице поехал, По дороге поскакал. По тропинке между бурых, Между серых, между скал. Маша, Зина, Даша, Нина ? Все как будто не она. Катя, Катя высекают Мне подковы скакуна. С той поры хоть шагом еду, Хоть галопом поскачу, Катя, Катя, Катерина, Неустанно я шепчу. Что за бестолочь такая, У меня ж другая есть! Ну, а Катю, словно песню, Из груди брат не известь. Черноглазая казачка Подковала мне коня. Серебро с меня спросила, Труд недорого ценя. Как зовут тебя, молодка? А молодка говорит: Имя ты мое услышишь Из под топота копыт. ____________________________ This is official videochannel of the Russian operatic singer Leonid Mikhailovich Kharitonov (bass-baritone).
