Ой то не вечер, Oh it is not yet evening Russian folk song (Трио Три в одном)
This is a Russian folk song also known as The Cossack s Parable or as Stepan Razin s dream. Performed by Sophie and Nathalie Cooper and Lucy Guest Translation: Ah, it is not yet evening, but I have taken a tiny little nap, and a dream came to me; In the dream that came to me, it was as if my ravenblack horse was playing about, dancing about, was being frisky beneath me; Ah, and there evil winds came flying out of the east, and they ripped the black cap from that wild head of mine. And the esaul was a clever one, he was able to interpret my dream. Ah, it will surely come off, he said, that wild head of yours.
