| [00:09.67] |
On a wagon bound for market |
| [00:13.98] |
There's a calf with a mournful eye. |
| [00:19.15] |
High above him there's a swallow |
| [00:23.40] |
Winging swiftly through the sky. |
| [00:27.74] |
How the winds are laughing |
| [00:30.79] |
They laugh with all their might |
| [00:35.92] |
Laugh and laugh the whole day through |
| [00:39.72] |
And half the summer's night. |
| [00:43.87] |
Dona dona dona dona |
| [00:48.16] |
Dona dona dona dona |
| [00:52.22] |
Dona dona dona dona |
| [00:56.47] |
Dona dona dona don |
| [01:02.92] |
"Stop complaining," said the farmer |
| [01:07.39] |
"Who told you a calf to be; |
| [01:12.42] |
Why don't you have wings to fly away |
| [01:16.55] |
Like the swallow so proud and free?" |
| [01:21.09] |
How the winds are laughing |
| [01:24.67] |
They laugh with all their might |
| [01:29.28] |
Laugh and laugh the whole day through |
| [01:32.67] |
And half the summer's night. |
| [01:37.15] |
Dona dona dona dona |
| [01:41.31] |
Dona dona dona dona |
| [01:45.42] |
Dona dona dona dona |
| [01:48.68] |
Dona dona dona don |
| [02:00.56] |
Calves are easily bound and slaughtered |
| [02:04.81] |
Never knowing the reason why. |
| [02:09.60] |
But whoever treasures freedom, |
| [02:14.10] |
Like the swallow has learn to fly |
| [02:18.37] |
How the winds are laughing |
| [02:21.53] |
They laugh with all their might |
| [02:26.63] |
Laugh and laugh the whole day through |
| [02:29.82] |
And half the summer's night. |
| [02:34.44] |
Dona dona dona dona |
| [02:38.47] |

Dona dona dona dona |
