about

Maslenitsa (Belarusian: Масленіца, Russian: Мaсленица) is an Eastern Slavic religious and folk holiday, which has retained a number of elements of Slavic mythology in its ritual, celebrated during the last week before Great Lent, that is, the eighth week before Eastern Orthodox Pascha.
This song is a feeling of celebration, fun, joy, noisy festivities and spring.

lyrics

А у нас сягодня масленица, Масленица
Прилятела ластавица, Масленица
Села (й)она на жэрдачку, Масленица
Щебятала нам вестачку, Масленица

На вулице девки гуляли, Масленица
И мяне младую гукали, Масленица, у
А у мяне младой муж лихий, Масленица, у
И на вулицу не пустит, ой, Масленица, у

А хоть пустит поздненька, Масленица, у
Все девачки розненька, Масленица, у
А я малада як гукну, Масленица, у
Карагод девок сабяру, Масленица, у
Звонких музык я найму, Масленица, у
И будем гулять да свету, эй, Масленица, у

Хэй-хэй-хэй!
Хэй-хэй-хэй!
Хэй-хэй-хэй!
Хэй-хэй-хэй!
