Donna Donna
- On a wagon bound for market
There's a calf with a mornful eye
High above him, there's a swallow
Winging swiftly through the sky.
How the winds are laughing
They laugh with all their might
Love and laugh the whole day through
And half the summer night.
Donna donna donna donna
Donna donna donna don(bis)
- Stop complaining said the farmer
Who told you it had to be
Why can't you have wings to fly with
Like the swallow so proud and free
- Calves are easily bound and slaughtered
Never knowin' the reason why
But whoever treasures freedom
Like the swallow you've learned to fly.
