an old Ukrainian folk song - Mandry's version (a lot of different sensless emphatic melodic sounds)
Lyrics:
It's a snowball bush (Viburnum opulus) in the meadow
and there was a girl walking there
and she was gathering the flowers of this bush...
she was gathering the flowers and making little bouquets of them
and winking at the guys..
(then repeating the first line many times)

Well, basically in Slavonic folk songs when a girl goes to pick up some red berries (cherries, cranberries, strawberries)with guys, it means sexual intercourse. I'm not kidding. These are the most obvious and well-known symbols in folk erotic songs.

Ой у лузі калина,
Калина, калина,
Чубарики, чубчики, калина,
Там дівчина ходила,
Ходила, ходила,
Чубарики, чубчики, ходила,
Цвіт калина ламала,
Ламала, ламала,
Чубарики, чубчики, ламала.

Та в пучечки складала,
Складала, складала,
Чубарики, чубчики, складала,
Та й на хлопців моргала,
Моргала, моргала,
Чубарики, чубчики, моргала.

where i can find lyrics of this song?
Interesting song! I noticed it in the related videos while listening to Pesnyary's Kalina. I like it (but I don't understand most of it, I only speak Russian but not Belorussian or Ukrainian, I wish I could though).
It's interesting that "cranberry" in English can mean either "калина" or "клюква", except that kalina is called Highbush Cranberry.
