Go_A - "Shum" (Transliteration of the Ukrainian lyrics, so you can sing along ;))
Vesnyanochko, vesnyanochko
De ty zymuvala?
U sadochku na klenochku
Sorochechku pryala
Tam u lisi, na uzlissi
Sova v vodu duye
Zaspivayu spivanochku
Nekhay vona chuye
Zapletysya, shume, barvinochkom
Ya tobi spivayu vesnyanochku
Siyu, siyu, siyu, siyu konopelechky
Siyu, siyu, siyu, siyu zelenesenʹki
Pryydy, pryydy, vesnyanochko
Ta y ne zabarysya
A my vyydem na yulytsyu
Budem lyubytysya
Vesnyanochko, panyanochko
Zahlyanʹ u vikontse
Zaspivaly spivanochku
Zasvitylo sontse
Numo, numo, zapletemo shuma
Zapletemo, hulyaty pidemo
Siyu, siyu, siyu, siyu konopelechky
Siyu, siyu, siyu, siyu zelenesenʹki
Zapletysya, shume, zapletysya
Barvinochkom, shume, zastelysya
Siyu, siyu, siyu, siyu konopelechky
Siyu, siyu, siyu, siyu zelenesenʹki
Vesnyanochko, vesnyanochko

Siyu, siyu, siyu, siyu zelenesenʹki
Numo, numo, narobyly shumu
Narobyly, vesnu rozbudyly
Siyu, siyu, siyu, siyu konopelechky
Siyu, siyu, siyu, siyu zelenesenʹki
Go_A - ""Shum" (English translation):
[Verse 1]
"Spring song oh Spring song, where have you spent your Winter?
In the garden, sitting on a maple tree, I been spinning a shirt
There on the edge of a forest an owl is blowing into the water
I'll sing a song - let her hear it
[Chorus]
Shum, get twined with periwinkle
I'm singing the spring song to you
Sowing, sowing, sowing, sowing hemp plants
Sowing, sowing, sowing, sowing green ones
[Verse 2]
Come Spring, come, don't wait around
We'll go outside to love each other
Oh Spring, our miss, look in our window
We had sang our song and the sun shined on
[Chorus]
Come on, come on, let's twine the Shum
Twinе the Shum, dance it around
Sowing, sowing, sowing, sowing hemp plants
Sowing, sowing, sowing, sowing green onеs
Shum, get twined, get twined!
Shum, get spread with periwinkle
Sowing, sowing, sowing, sowing hemp plants
Sowing, sowing, sowing, sowing green ones
[Bridge]
Oh Spring song, Spring song, where have you spent your Winter?
In the garden, sitting on a maple tree, you've been spinning a shirt
There on the edge of a forest an owl is blowing into the water
I'll sing a song - let her hear it
[Chorus]
Shum, get twined with periwinkle
I'm singing the spring song to you
Sowing, sowing, sowing, sowing hemp plants
Sowing, sowing, sowing, sowing green ones
Come on, come on, we've made some noise
Made some noise and awoke the Spring
Sowing, sowing, sowing, sowing hemp plants
Sowing, sowing, sowing, sowing green ones
