"Bandura" - Yevgeny Belyaev & The Alexandrov Red Army Choir (Live)

The Ukrainian folk song "Bandura" ("I would take a bandura") performed by Yevgeny Belyaev (tenor) and the Alexandrov Red Army Choir. Very rare recording, probably the only one where Y. Belyaev sings this song. The part of the basso profundo is performed by Vladimir Fyodorov.
Folk music, lyrics by Mikhail Petrenka.

Live concert recording was made in 1955-56 in the very beginning of the tenor's career. Most probably that it was made during the Ensemble's tours abroad.

UKRAINIAN LYRICS:

Взяв би я бандуpу
Та й загpав, що знав.
Чеpез ту бандуpу 1
Бандуpистом став.

А все чеpез очi…
Коли б я їх мав,
За тi каpi очi,
Душу я б вiддав.

Марусенько, люба,
Пожалiй мене, —
Вiзьми моє сеpце,
Дай менi своє.

Маруся не чує,
Серця не дає,
З іншими жартує —
Жалю завдає.

Де Кpим за гоpами,
Де сонечко сяє,
Там моя голубка
З жалю завмиpає.

Взяв би я бандуpу
Та й загpав, що знав.
Чеpез тiї очi
Бандуpистом став.
