O Moon I'm your Bright Star Ой ти місяцю Ukranian Folk Song

[Liviapoetisa]

A música realmente atravessa fronteiras e une pessoas. Uma beleza de canção. Uma voz e seu sentimento que nos encanta. Um presente que hoje ganhei, ao escutar algo tão mágico. Obrigada.

I dont understand the language, but it is such a beautiful and amazing song. Music has no boundaries, i've always believe this. Despite whatever language/ genre the music is, so long its able to touch you from deep within, it is a good music.

[Paranoidhuman]

Beautiful song. It brought me to tears :') Can anybody tell me where can I find the original version? Thanks.

[LeksAlksa1990]

It`s a love song..Very cosmogonic..About love, that our galaxy can not measure...Words are not the main. The main - is energy..I`m ukrainian...

Tanya Lubinmenko is my favorite singer. I can listen to her sing this Ukrainian folk song over and over again.

[MariaAnnastasia]

Beautiful! Do you have the lyrics in the Cyrillic --- Ukrainian alphabet?

I've been listening to this song for months now. I can't stop listening, it's so beautiful. I love the singer as well. Ms. Tanya Lubimenko has a beautiful voice.

[vspvk]

Oj ty mis'ac'u ja ziron'ka jasnaja

Oj ty parubok ja divchyna krasnaja (2)

Oj ty parubok ja divon'ka krasnaja

V vyshnevim sadu jazh tobi kon'a pasla (2) Pasla ja kon'a z vechora j do pivnochi

Azh vpala rosa na moji kari ochi (2)

Ne tak na ochi jak na rusuju kosu

Serce kozache vinochka ne donoshu (2)

sign ' means soft consonants.

[laconically]

I don't speak Czech, but seems like their alphabet is the most precise one, as for the Ukrainian transliteration. Something like that: Oj, ti mísácú, Ja zíroňka jasna. Oj, ti parubok, Ja dívčina krasna. Oj, ti parubok, Ja dívčina krasna, U višnevím sadu, Ja ž tobí koná pasla. Oj, pasla, pasla, Iz večora do pivnočí, Prepala rosa, Na moї krasní očí.

Thank you for supplying the words and translation. It is, I know, very difficult to take folk idioms from one language to another, but what I don't get is does this hazel eyed beauty want to marry the kozak or not? Maybe she just likes him for his horse!

[vspvk]

Ha-Ha. Who knows woman's hart?

Actually the full version of this song is longer. And there are different versions. She afraid the temptation to lost her wreath too early before marriage (with Cossack!!!) and eventually all ended well.

[vspvk]

My English is very poor. Actually I never speak it. So I try my best.

Oh you moon I am bright star

Oh you lad I am bonnie lass

In cherry garden I herded your horse

I herded your horse from еvening till midnight

until dew fell upon my hazel eyes

not so on my eyes as on my fair plait (braid)

Cossack's hart I'll not wear out my wreath

To loose wreath means to get married. Hazel eyes, fair plait, dew which fall must be some poetisms like bonnie lass (thats standard folk idiomas).

[Maboitedemusique]

Hey. I love this song, but I have not earthly clue what it says. Could you send the lyrics to me? Thanks.

[johnj1954]

Thank you for your kind comment. I do have the lyrics but in Ukrainian only. I will shortly post them in the information box. I don't speak Ukrainian so am unable to supply a translation, suffice it to say that it is a love song sung by a beautiful young hazel eyed girl (as she describes herself) to a young horseman with whom she is enamoured.

[chandrakavi]

Beautiful video, and voice!

[ctr105]

Thanks for the lyrics. Couldn't help but notice that there is an identical video to yours on youtube. Who stole from whom?

[johnj1954]

If you check the upload dates you will see that mine was cloned one day after I uploaded it. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery and I will take it as such, but I assure you that you are with the original and best!

[kovalevska]

sorry :)

[kovalevska]

Who is singing? Beautiful!!!

[ctr105]

Thanks for sharing. Tanya has a beautiful voice. Do you have the lyrics?

[johnj1954]

Yes, I will mail them to you, in Ukrainian only!
