Ай, хорошо! Ай, хорошо!
Ah, it's good! Ah, it's good!
Ай, хорошо! Ай, хорошо!
Ah, it's good! Ah, it's good!
Хорошо бы, хорошо
It would be nice, oh so nice
Было бы, конечно
It would be, of course
Если б ты ко мне пришел
If you came over to me
Мой дружок сердешный
My dear little friend
Вот Луны повис рожок
Here the moon hangs like a horn
Над рекой широкой
Above the wide river
Ну, приходи скорей, дружок
Well, come quicker, my friend
Ну чё ты, правда, ну?
Well, what are you waiting for, really?
Посидим, поокаем
Let's sit and sway
Ай, хорошо! Ай, хорошо!
Ah, good! Ah, good!
Ай, хорошо! Хорошо!
Ah, good! Good!
Хорошо бы, хорошо
It would be nice, it would be nice
Коль, назло девчонкам
If only to spite the girls
Ты б во мне одной нашел
You would find in me alone
Образ нареченный
A destined image
Ох, покроет бережок
Oh, the shore will be covered
Лебедой, осокою
With swans and reeds
Ну, приходи скорей, дружок
Well, come quickly, my friend
Посидим, поокаем
Let's sit, let's reflect
Ай, хорошо! Ай, хорошо!
Ah, it's good! Ah, it's good!
Ай, хорошо! Ай, хорошо!
Ah, it's good! Ah, it's good!
Хорошо бы, хорошо
It would be nice, oh so nice
Целоваться вволю
To kiss freely
Вот только...
But just...
Чё меня ты не нашел, а?
Why didn't you find me, huh?
Заблудился что ли?
Did you get lost or what?
Или ты к другой пошел
Or did you go to another?
По траве некошеной?
Through the uncut grass?
Хорошо-то, хорошо
It's all good, it's all good
Да ничё хорошего
But there's nothing good about it
