Shrovetide

Monday is the day to meet
Everyone goes to visit friends.
And on Tuesday - songs, dances.
The name of the day is flirting.
Wednesday - a table of treats
Breaks down: eat, drink, Cossack!
And Thursday is the day of reconciliation ...
"Mother-in-law's Day" - so called.
The mother-in-law makes peace with her daughter-in-law,
Mother-in-law shakes hands with her son-in-law.
The godfather forgot the disputes with the godfather,
Everyone calls to visit him.
Round dances are led by girls
The guys are riding in a sleigh.
From the snowy slope
Rushing down the slides on their feet.
Cossacks gallant
Calls for the game.
Early in the morning he, crafty,
I poked vines into a snowdrift.
On hot horses
Cossacks cut it:
Galloping with a full saber
Donchaks cut it.
Aside the important Cossacks
Restless kuragod.
They throw handkerchiefs into the snow -
Let the rider pick up ...
