Donna Donna

On a wagon bound for market
There's a calf wite a mournful eye
high above him there's swallow
Winging swiftly through the sky

How the winds are laughing
They laugh with all their might
Laugh and laugh the whole day through
And half the summers night

[: Donna donna donna dooonnaa..donna donna donna donn... :]

Stop complaining! Seid the farmer
Who told you a calf to be?
Why don't you have wings to fly with
Like a swallow so proud and free?

How the winds are laughing
They laugh with all their might
Laugh and laugh the whole day through
And half the summers night

[: Donna donna donna dooonnaa..donna donna donna donn... :]

Calves are easily bound and slaughtered
Never knowing the reason why
But whoever treasures freedom
Like the swallow has learned to fly

How the winds are laughing
They laugh with all their might
Laugh and laugh the whole day through
And half the summers night

[: Donna donna donna dooonnaa..donna donna donna donn... :]
